Is this a right triangle?

Front

What is a right triangle?

Back

A right triangle is a triangle that has one angle measuring 90 degrees.

Front

What is the Pythagorean theorem?

Back

The Pythagorean theorem states that in a right triangle, the square of the length of the hypotenuse (c) is equal to the sum of the squares of the lengths of the other two sides (a and b): a² + b² = c².

Front

If a triangle has sides of lengths 3, 4, and 5, is it a right triangle?

Back

Yes, it is a right triangle because 3² + 4² = 5² (9 + 16 = 25).

Front

Can a triangle with sides 2, 2, and 3 be a right triangle?

Back

No, it cannot be a right triangle because it does not satisfy the Pythagorean theorem.

Front

What are the side lengths of a right triangle?

Back

In a right triangle, the side opposite the right angle is the hypotenuse, and it is the longest side.

Front

If a triangle has sides of lengths 6, 8, and 10, is it a right triangle?

Back

Yes, it is a right triangle because 6² + 8² = 10² (36 + 64 = 100).

Front

What is the relationship between the angles in a right triangle?

Back

In a right triangle, one angle is 90 degrees, and the sum of the other two angles is 90 degrees.

Front

If a triangle has sides of lengths 5, 12, and 13, is it a right triangle?

Back

Yes, it is a right triangle because 5² + 12² = 13² (25 + 144 = 169).

Front

What is the formula to find the area of a right triangle?

Back

The area of a right triangle can be found using the formula: Area = (1/2) * base * height.

Front

If a triangle has sides of lengths 7, 24, and 25, is it a right triangle?

Back

Yes, it is a right triangle because 7² + 24² = 25² (49 + 576 = 625).
