उत्तर
The sides of the triangle are 6 cm, 8 cm and 10 cm.
The longest side is 10 cm.
(10)2 = 100 ….(i)
Now, the sum of the squares of the other two sides will be,
(6)2 + (8)2 = 36 + 64 = 100 ….(ii)
(10)2 = (6)2 + (8)2 ….. from (i) and (ii)
By the converse of Pythagoras theorem:
The given sides form a right angled triangle.
