Question

directions: could the set of numbers be the three sides of a right triangle? write yes or no.

  1. 6, 12, and 13
  2. 14, 48, and 50
  3. 10, 18, and 22
  1. 8, 15, and 17
  2. 20, 21, and 30
  3. 20, 21, and 29

directions: find the missing measurement. round to the nearest tenth if necessary.

  1. a =

b = 60
c = 61

  1. a = 30

b = 16
c =

  1. a = 5

b =
c = 11

Explanation:

Response
Problem 7 (6, 12, 13)

Step1: Identify hypotenuse (longest side)

Longest side is 13. So \( c = 13 \), \( a = 6 \), \( b = 12 \).

Step2: Apply Pythagorean theorem (\( a^2 + b^2 = c^2 \))

Calculate \( 6^2 + 12^2 = 36 + 144 = 180 \), \( 13^2 = 169 \). Since \( 180
eq 169 \), not a right triangle.

Step1: Identify hypotenuse (50)

\( a = 14 \), \( b = 48 \), \( c = 50 \).

Step2: Apply Pythagorean theorem

\( 14^2 + 48^2 = 196 + 2304 = 2500 \), \( 50^2 = 2500 \). Since \( 2500 = 2500 \), it is a right triangle.

Step1: Identify hypotenuse (22)

\( a = 10 \), \( b = 18 \), \( c = 22 \).

Step2: Apply Pythagorean theorem

\( 10^2 + 18^2 = 100 + 324 = 424 \), \( 22^2 = 484 \). Since \( 424
eq 484 \), not a right triangle.
