Answer 1

Yes, 24^2*45^2 = 51^2
576 + 2025 = 2601

Answer 2

can u explain how u did tht ?

Answer 3

It is the Pythagoras theorem. Surely when we multiply 2 small numbers we would get the large numbers. So we take 24 and 45. According to pythagoras theorem a^2+b^2=c^2.
So, 24^2+45^2=51^2
Check whether it satisfies the above equation. If it is perfectly satisfied then those are measurements of a Right Triangle.

Answer 4

ooooooooooooh
ok i get it thank u

Answer 5

\[Hypotenuse ^{2} = Sum of \square of legs of that \right \triangle\]

Answer 6

ok well u got 2601 how do we know its a special right triangle?
