4. Which of the following sets of numbers is a Pythagorean triple?
A. 4, 5, 6
B. 8, 15, 17
C. 5, 12, 14
D. 8, 24, 25
Suppose a triangle has side lengths 6, 7, and 10. Which of the following best describes this triangle?
A. obtuse
B. acute
C. right
D. Cannot be determined.

Respuesta :

Here are the answers to the given questions above:
4. When we say pythagorean triple, this would consists of three positive integers a, b, and c, such that a2 + b2 = c2. So for the given numbers above, the set that is considered a pythagorean triple would be B.  8, 15, 17.
5. The correct answer for this question would be option D. It cannot be determined whether the triangle is obtuse, acute or right if the given values are the side lengths. It should be angles. Hope this answer helps.

The sets 8, 15, and 17 is a Pythagorean triple. And we can not determine the triangle by the sides.

What is a right-angle triangle?

It is a type of triangle in which one angle is 90 degrees and it follows the Pythagoras theorem and we can use the trigonometry function. The Pythagoras is the sum of the square of two sides is equal to the square of the longest side.

1.  The sets of numbers is a Pythagorean triple will be

If the set will satisfy the Pythagoras theorem, then the set will be a right-angle triangle.

Pythagoras theorem is given as

H² = P² + B²

A.  4, 5, 6, then

H² = P² + B²

6² = 5² + 4²

36 = 25 + 16

36 ≠ 41

This is not Pythagorean triple.

B.  8, 15, 17, then

  H² = P² + B²

 17² = 15² + 8²

289 = 225+ 64

289 = 289

This is a Pythagorean triple.

C.  5, 12, 14, then

 H² = P² + B²

14² = 5² + 12²

196 = 25 + 144

196 ≠ 169

This is not Pythagorean triple.

D.  8, 24, 25, then

  H² = P² + B²

25² = 24² + 8²

625 = 576 + 64

625 ≠ 640

This is not Pythagorean triple.

2.  Suppose a triangle has side lengths 6, 7, and 10. Then it is impossible to get the idea about the triangle that a triangle is obtuse, acute, or right triangle by the sides.
