Pythagorean Theorem and Triangle Types

The video tutorial explains how to determine if a triangle is a right triangle using the Pythagorean theorem. The instructor identifies the hypotenuse and legs of the triangle, substitutes the values into the theorem, and evaluates the equation. The result shows that the given triangle is not a right triangle, as the equation does not hold true.
