steps

Step-by-step explanation:

A triangle with sides 3, 5, and 9 is "NOT" a right triangle, because 3 + 5 < 9

A triangle with sides 2 ft, 1.5 ft, and 2.5 ft. "IS" a right triangle 2²+1.5²=2.5²

If a right triangle has legs with length 12 and 5, find the hypotenuse. 13

hi!

for this question you can use the pythagoras theorem

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

c = √ (a + b)

c is the hypotenuse while a and b are the other 2 numbers
