Are my answers correct? :)
i know the answer to ur question if i tell u u going to have to fan meh?
how did you figure hose out ?
did you use this : If a, b and c are the lengths of the sides of a triangle and c is the largest side, then (1) a^2 + b^2 = c^2 => right triangle (2) a^2 + b^2 > c^2 => acute-angled (3) a^2 + b^2 < c^2 => obtuse-angled ?
its easy
im doing same stuff
so they aren't correct? i dont know how to figure it out
you can use this : If a, b and c are the lengths of the sides of a triangle and c is the largest side, then (1) a^2 + b^2 = c^2 => right triangle (2) a^2 + b^2 > c^2 => acute-angled (3) a^2 + b^2 < c^2 => obtuse-angled first figure out which is largest side, c
so the first one is still obtuse?
lets check! largest side = c =12 , c^2 =12^2 =144 a^2+b^2 = 9^2 +10^2 = 81+100 =181 181 > 144 so, a^2+b^2 > c^2 so , according to "(2) a^2 + b^2 > c^2 => acute-angled" this triangle is acute triangle. did you get this ? can you do similar thing for others ?
OOHHH i get it. Thankyou :)
welcome ^_^ you can ask if you wanna verify others too....
the second one is obtuse?
i did 17*17 + 15 + 8
the sides were, 8,15,17 right ? largest side = c = 17, c^2 =....? a^2+b^2 = 8^2+15^2 =.... ?
1185?
which calculator are you using ? :P c^2 = 17^2 =289 a^2+b^2 = 8^2+15^2 =64 +225 = 289 so which case ?
when both are equal ?
they're right triangles
yes, 2nd one is right triangle, what about 3rd ?
acute?
what were the sides of 3rd triangle ?
5 6 and 10
largest side = c =10, c^2 =10^2 =... a^2+b^2 = 5^2+6^2 =... ?
61?
yes, so is 61 > 100 or 61 < 100 ?
less than. so its obtuse?
yes.
