A right triangle obeys the Pythagorean theorem: the square of the longest side equals the sum of squares of the two shorter sides.

32.5^2 = 1056.25

12.5^2 + 30^2 = 1056.25

Yes, it is a right triangle.

well if a^2 + B^2 = C^2

longest side has to be c so c=32.5

other sides do not matter

so 12.5^2 + 30^2 = 32.5^2

it is a right triangle

12.5^2+30^2 = 32.5^2

So yes it is a right angled triangle.

12.5^2 + 30^2 = 32.5^2

156.25 + 900 = 1056.25

1056.25 = 1056.25, which is a true equation. Therefore, the triangle is a right triangle.

Pythagorean theorem (a2 = sqaure)

A2+B2=C2 then you squared root the numbers

c is always the longer side removing 32.5 from the set.

a+b are lengths are left

leaving (you to squared) 12.5 + 30 (squared) = C2 then square route the answer. if the answer is 32.5 then according to Pythagoras theorem .....

check if sum of squares of any two sides is equal to square of another side
