उत्तर

The sides of the triangle are 8 cm, 15 cm, and 17 cm.

The longest side of the triangle is 17 cm.

∴ (17)2 = 289

Now, sum of the squares of the remaining sides is,

(8)2 + (15)2 = 64 + 225 = 289

∴ (17)2 = (8)2 + (15)2

∴ Square of the longest side is equal to the sum of the squares of the remaining two sides.

∴ The given sides will form a right-angled triangle.  ......[Converse of Pythagoras theorem]
