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 40, 20, and 30.
Let us check whether the given set (40, 20, 30) forms a Pythagorean triplet or not.
The biggest number among the given set is 40.
(40)2 = 1600; (20)2 = 400; (30)2 = 900
Now, 400 + 900 = 1300 ≠ 1600
∴ (20)2 + (30)2 ≠ (40)2
Thus, (40, 20, 30) does not form a Pythagorean triplet.
Hence, the given triangle with sides 40, 20, and 30 is not a right-angled triangle.
