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.
