What is right triangle?

Triangle is defined as a triangle which one angle is a right angle or two sides are perpendicular.

The hypotenuse = 17

Let, perpendicular = 8 and base = 15

According to Pythagoras theorem,

A right-angled triangle, the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.

perpendicular²+base²=hypotenuse²

8² + 15² = 17²

64 + 225 = 289

289 = 289

Hence, The lengths of the two legs are 8 and 15
