actually @nicolebears there are some right triangles that you will see that don't have the square in the corner
OpenStudy (anonymous):
and if you add 25, 27, and 48 they don't equal 90

OpenStudy (anonymous):
why would they equal 90?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
right triangle equal 90 degrees
OpenStudy (anonymous):
you would have to use the Law of Cosine because you are given all 3 lengths
OpenStudy (anonymous):
those are the side lengths though and you don't just add them up to get 90 degrees
OpenStudy (anonymous):
@marcoduuuh have you learned Law of Cosine?
