The figure below shows two triangles EFG and KLM:
Two triangles EFG and KLM are drawn. Angle KML is a right angle. The measures of the sides of the triangles are, In triangle EFG, EG measures a, GF measure b, and EF measures c. In triangle KLM, KM measures a and ML measures b.
Which of the following can be used to prove that triangle EFG is also a right triangle?
Use Pythagorean Theorem to prove that KL is equal to c.
Prove that the ratio of EF and KL is greater than 1 and hence, the triangles are similar by AA postulate.
Prove that the sum of the squares of a and c is greater than square
