A triangle has sides with lengths of 60 centimeters, 63 centimeters, and 87 centimeters. Is it a right triangle

Answer :

We can check this by seeing if Pythagorean's theorem applies. The longest side is the hypotenuse, so let's see if this is true:
[tex]60^2+63^2 = 87^2[/tex]
[tex]7569 = 7569[/tex]

This is, indeed correct, thus, this is a right triangle.
