उत्तर
It is known that, if in a triplet of natural numbers, the square of the biggest number is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two numbers, then the three numbers form a Pythagorean triplet. If the lengths of the sides of a triangle form such a triplet, then the triangle is a right-angled triangle.
The sides of the given triangle are 11, 12, and 15.
Let us check whether the given set (11, 12, 15) forms a Pythagorean triplet or not.
The biggest number among the given set is 15.
(15)2 = 225; (11)2 = 121; (12)2 = 144
Now, 121 + 144 = 265 ≠ 225
∴ (11)2 + (12)2 ≠ (15)2
Thus, (11, 12, 15) does not form a Pythagorean triplet.
Hence, the given triangle with sides 8, 15, and 17 is not a right-angled triangle.
