Answer: A

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]a^{2} + b^{2} = c^{2}[/tex]

A and B are the legs of the triangle, and c is the hypotenuse. A would make the most sense.

The sum of the squares of the lengths of the legs of a right triangle equals the square of the length of the hypotenuse.

" In a right angled triangle the square of the hypotenuse is equals to the sum of the square of the other two sides of the right angled triangle."

According to the question,

As per the Pythagoras theorem ,
