In triangle PQR, r^2 = p^2 + q^2. Triangle PQR has sides p, q, r opposite to the corresponding vertices P, Q, R Which equation is true about the measure of the angles of the triangle? The measure of angle PRQ is equal to 100 degrees The measure of angle PRQ is equal to 90 degrees The measure of angle PQR plus the measure of angle QPR is equal to 80 degrees The measure of angle PQR plus the measure of angle QPR is equal to 70 degrees

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

if we have a right triangle with side lengths a,b,c and c is the longest side (opposite the 90 degree angle), then \[\Large a^2 + b^2 = c^2\] which is the pythagorean theorem |dw:1445057324767:dw|

OpenStudy (feemeegaming):

yes

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

the link doesn't work

OpenStudy (feemeegaming):

how do you pot picture

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

`r^2 = p^2 + q^2` has `r^2` on its own side, so it's very similar to `c` in my post above

OpenStudy (feemeegaming):

k

OpenStudy (feemeegaming):

I think it's 90 degree angle, am I right?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

yes R is the 90 degree angle |dw:1445057804031:dw|

OpenStudy (feemeegaming):

So B is the right answer?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

`The measure of angle PRQ is equal to 90 degrees` is true, yes

OpenStudy (feemeegaming):

alright thanks a bunch. ps. here is a medal.
