Question

Is the triangle whose sides are 53 cm, 45 cm and 24 cm long right-angled?

hintHint:

em states that “In a right-angled triangle,  the square of the hypotenuse side is equal to the sum of squares of the other two sides“. The sides of this triangle have been named Perpendicular, Base and Hypotenuse. Here, the hypotenuse is the longest side, as it is opposite to the angle 90°.
If a is the perpendicular, b is the base, and c is the hypotenuse, then according to the definition, the Pythagoras Theorem formula is given as
c2= a2 + b2
 

The correct answer is: Hence, the given triangle is not a right-angled triangle.


    In a right-angled triangle, the longest length is of the hypotenuse. So by seeing all the values we can conclude that 53 cm can be the hypotenuse of the given right-angled triangle and the other two can be the perpendicular and base
    We can check it by applying Pythagoras' theorem
    Hypotenuse2= Perpendicular2 + Base2

    (53)2 = (45)2 + (24)2

    2809 = 2025 + 576

    2809 not equal to 2601

    So, LHS not equal to RHS

    Final Answer:
    Hence, the given triangle is not a right-angled triangle.
