In order for it to be a right triangle, the formula would be \[a^{2}+b ^{2}=c ^{2}\]
So lets try out the first one. 7^2 + 9^2 = 13^2 that gives us, 49 + 81 = 169. Is that equal?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
no?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Nope. Try out another one
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Any guesses?
Still Need Help?

yea b
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[5^{2}+12^{2}=17^{2}\] This simplifies to 25 + 144 = 289. Is that equal?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yea?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
waiiiit no
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Im sorry I did that wrong. *=14^2 which equals 196. 25 +144 = 169, so no they are not equal

lol ik :D

So its either C or D. Do you think you can figure out which one?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
D!!!!
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Lets try it out!! \[9^{2}+12^{2}=14^{2}\] So, that simplifies tooo 81 + 144 = 196. Is tha equal?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
noyo ::(

I guess that just leaves us with C! Shall we? \[8^{2}+15^{2}=17^{2}\] so that gives us 64+225 = 289. Is that equal??
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes!!!!!
OpenStudy (anonymous):
:)) the correct answer is C
OpenStudy (anonymous):
thank you sooo much i dont know how to thank you !!!!
