The side lengths of a triangle are 6, 8, and 12. Is this a right triangle?
O A. Yes, because 62 +82 < 122
B. Yes, because 62 +82 = 122.
C. No, because 62 +82 + 122
O D. No, because 6 + 8 + 12.

The side lengths of a triangle are 6 8 and 12 Is this a right triangle O A Yes because 62 82 lt 122 B Yes because 62 82 122 C No because 62 82 122 O D No becaus class=

Respuesta :

Answer:

the answer is B if wrong sorry

Step-by-step explanation:

62+82=122

No, this triangle is not a right angled triangle because 12²≠6²+8² .

What is Pythagoras theorem?

The Pythagoras theorem states that if a triangle is right-angled, then the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.

Formula of Pythagoras theorem:

[tex]Hypotenuse ^{2} = Perpendicular^{2} +Base^{2}[/tex]

According to the question

The side lengths of a triangle : 6 , 8 , 12

Now according to  Pythagoras theorem

If it is a right angled triangle then its sides should follow Pythagoras theorem  

i.e

[tex]Hypotenuse ^{2} = Perpendicular^{2} +Base^{2}[/tex]

[tex]12 ^{2} = 8^{2} + 6^{2}[/tex]

but

144 ≠ 64 + 36

144 ≠ 100

Therefore, it is not a right angled triangle .

Hence, This side lengths of a triangle is not a  right angle triangle because 12²≠6²+8² .
