Which of the following statements is true about the converse Pythagorean theorem?

• The converse Pythagorean theorem states that if the square of the length of one side of a triangle is equal to the sum of the squares of the lengths of the other two sides, then the triangle is a right triangle.

• The converse Pythagorean theorem states that if the square of the length of one side of a triangle is equal to the product of the squares of the lengths of the other two sides, then the triangle is a right triangle.

• The converse Pythagorean theorem states that if the sum of the lengths of two sides of a triangle is equal to the square of the length of the third side, then the triangle is a right triangle.

• The converse Pythagorean theorem states that if the square of the length of one side of a triangle is equal to the difference of the squares of the lengths of the other two sides, then the triangle is a right triangle.
