Question

if the sides of a triangle are in the ratio 3:4:5, prove that it is
right-angled triangle​

Answer 1

Answer:

hope this helps

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a , b , c are three sides of a triangle

a : b : c = 3 : 4 : 5

a = 3x ,

b = 4x ,

c = 5x

a² = 9x²

b² = 16x²,

c² = 25x².

c² = a² + b²

by the pythagorean theorem,

a , b , c forms a right angled Triangle.

Answer 2

Answer:

yes it's a right angle triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the sides are in the ratio 3:4:5.

Let ABC be the given triangle.

Let the sides be 3x,4x and hypotenuse be 5x.

According to Pythagoras theorem,
