Question

Which set of line segments with the given lengths can be formed into a right triangle?

24, 30, 35

12, 18, 30

18, 24, 30

18, 24, 35

Answer 1

i think c or d

Answer 2

See if each option works in the Pythagorean theorem equation.
If it does, it is a right triangle.

\(a^2 + b^2 = c^2\)

Let the largest side be c, and use the other two sides as a and b.

Answer 3

ok thank you

Answer 4

You're welcome.

Answer 5

I suggest the other way to find out :)
as you know, 3,4,5 is the right triangle for sure, right?
let say a =3
b=4
c =5
therefore, a= \(\dfrac{3}{4}b\) =\(\dfrac{3}{5}c\)
so that, I just check the equation above
for example: 18 =\(\dfrac{3}{4}24 \) \(\surd\)
and then 18 =\(\dfrac{3}{5}30\) \(\surd\)
--> 18,24,30 is the answer
