उत्तर
In ∆PQR, PQ = √8 , QR = √5 , PR = √3
Longest side of ∆PQR = PQ = √8
∴ PQ2 = (√8)2 = 8
Now, the sum of the squares of the remaining sides is
QR2 + PR2 = (√5)2 + (√3)2 = 5 + 3 = 8
∴ PQ2 = QR2 + PR2
∴ The square of the longest side is equal to the sum of the squares of the remaining two sides.
by Converse of Pythagoras theorem,
∴ ∆PQR is a right-angled triangle.
Now, PQ is the hypotenuse.
∴ ∠PRQ = 90° ...(Angle opposite to hypotenuse)
∴ ∆PQR is a right-angled triangle in which ∠PRQ is 90°.

In ∆LMN, l = 5, m = 13, n = 12 then complete the activity to show that whether the given triangle is right angled triangle or not.
*(l, m, n are opposite sides of ∠L, ∠M, ∠N respectively)
Activity: In ∆LMN, l = 5, m = 13, n = `square`
∴ l2 = `square`, m2 = 169, n2 = 144.
∴ l2 + n2 = 25 + 144 = `square`
∴ `square` + l2 = m2
∴By Converse of Pythagoras theorem, ∆LMN is right angled triangle.
