Question 1158975
<font face="Times New Roman" size="+2">


If the triangle is a right triangle, the square of the measure of the longest side will be equal to the sum of the squares of the measures of the two shorter sides.  So is:


*[tex \LARGE \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ (13)^2\ +\ (12)^2\ =^?\ (18.5)^2]


If that is a true statement, then the triangle is a right triangle.  If it is not a true statement, the triangle is not a right triangle.
