Question

The lengths of the sides of a triangle are 3, 3, 3 sqrt 2. Can the triangle be a right triangle?

Answer 1

to check 3^2+3^2=(3 sqrt2)^2
9+9=9*2
18=18 so yes this an be a right triangle

Answer 2

use pyh theorem

Answer 3

Ok, hang on 1 second.

Answer 4

yeah

Answer 5

\[Does 3\sqrt{2} equate \to 4.2?\]

Answer 6

yes

Answer 7

Does C^2 = 4.2?

Answer 8

no

Answer 9

look

Answer 10

3^2+3^2=(3 sqrt2)^2 dont solve for sqrt2 you dont need that

Answer 11

Ok, I thought the Hypotenuse had to be longer than the two legs, when added together.

Answer 12

(3 sqrt2)^2=3^2*2=18

Answer 13

18=18

Answer 14

I'm slightly confused.

Answer 15

hmmmm
pyth states that a^2+b^2=c^2 where a aand b are cathets c is the hypotenuse

Answer 16

Does it become 9+9=9 sqrt2?

Answer 17

no
9+9=18

Answer 18

(3 sqrt2)^2=9*2=18
18=18

Answer 19

3^2+3^2=9*2
18=18

Answer 20

Thanks for the help.

You still don't understand the difference between a direct answer and a guided one. A direct answer is what you're doing (giving the whole process without the askers participation). A guided answer is when you don't say the answer. Instead you help the user with a few hints, some links, and some basic information until the user understands it. It has to have the askers participation.

What you're doing is just doing all the work yourself. The asker learns nothing and takes the final result.

If you want to learn more about how to give a GUIDED ANSWER look through these peoples questions and you will see.
