Question

Which set of numbers can represent the side lengths, in centimeters, of a right triangle?

8, 12, 15
10, 24, 26
12, 20, 25
15, 18, 20

Answer 1

Answer:

10, 24, 26

Step-by-step explanation:

The sides of a right triangle satisfy the equation a^2+b^2=c^2, where c is the longest length(the hypotenuse). If we plug in each of these groups of side lengths into the equation, we see that only 10, 24, 26 satisfies the equation
