True or false? A triangle with sides of lengths 10, 24, and 27 is a right triangle.

OpenStudy (e.cociuba):

False, In order for this to be a right triangle, the sum of the squares of the two shorter sides would have to equal the square of the longest side. 102=100 242= 576 272=729 102+242= 676, which does not equal 272=729, so a triangle with these lengths is not a right triangle.
