Question 403486: how do i do homework here is my question...my problem is to solve it and the problem is...sue's half sandwich is 5 inches on one side,3 inches on the another,and 4 inches on the third side.what kind of triangle is it? Answer by Nada(11) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! This easy.
Check what a^2 + b^2 equals
And then what C^2 equals
A being the short side ( 3 ) and B being the medium one ( 4) And C being the longest ( 5 )
So (3)^2 + (4)^2 = 25
And (5)^2 = 25
If the longest side squared equals the sum of the legs squared >> the triangle is a right triangle.
If the longest side squared is less than the sum of the legs squared >> the triangle is acute.
If the longest side squared is greater than the sum of the legs squared >> the triange is obtuse.
So yours is a right triangle.
