Answer:
( i ) YES
(ii) NO
( iii) NO
(iv) NO
Step-by-step explanation:
If a triangle is a Pythagorean triplet the square of the longest side must be equal to the sum of the squares on the other two sides
Let's examine each of the given triplets and see if this property is satisfied
(i) 12, 35, 37
37² = 1369
12² + 35² = 144 + 1225 = 1369 = 37²
So this triplet is indeed a right triangle
( ii ) 8, 12, 14
14² = 196
8² + 12² = 64 + 144 = 208 ≠ 14²
So this triplet is NOT a Pythagorean one
( iii ) 5, 9, 11
11² = 121
5² + 9² = 25 + 81 = 106 ≠ 11²
NOT a Pythagorean triplet
( iv ) 8, 10, 12
12² = 144
8² + 10² = 64 + 100 = 164 ≠ 12²
So this is NOT a Pythagorean triplet
