PLEASE HELP ASAP!!! CORRECT ANSWERS ONLY PLEASE!!!

A triangle has sides with lengths of 12 feet, 12 feet, and 15 feet. Is it a right triangle?

Yes or no?

Respuesta :

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find whether or not side lengths will form a right triangle, you must use the pythagorean theorem.

[tex]12^{2} + 12^{2} = c^{2}[/tex]

Calculate square roots and add

144 + 144 = 288

Than square root that number

[tex]\sqrt{288}[/tex] = 16.970

Due to the answer not being of equivalent to 15, the side lengths do not produce a triangle

No it is not a right triangle. It is an acute isosceles triangle.
