For this triangle, which side is A, B, and C?

• A = 9 B = 15 C = 12

• A = 9 B = 12 C = 15

• A = 15 B = 12 C = 9

• A = 15 B = 9 C = 12

For this triangle, which side is A, B, and C?

• A = 56 B = 65 C = 33

• A = 65 B = 33 C = 56

• A = 65 B = 56 C = 33

• A = 33 B = 56 C = 65

Which equation correctly represents this right triangle?

• 56² + 65² = 33²

• 33² + 56² = 65²

• 5² + 33² = 56²

• 33² − 56² = 65²
