Which of the following sets of numbers could be the lengths of thesides of a triangle?11, 1,41, 14, 2016, 9, 1511, 8, 19

Sagot :

as you may know the hypotenuse is the longest side in a triangle. So using pythagoras theorem:

c = √(a² + b²)

Where:

c = Hypotenuse

a = adjacent side

b = opposite side

11, 1,4 Since 11 is the greater number

c = 11

the others will be a and b, the order does not matter

a=1

b=4

11 = √(1² + 4²
