Solution
(3, 4, 5)
Explanation:
Here, 52 = 25
32 + 42 = 9 + 16 = 25
∴ 52 = 32 + 42
The square of the largest number is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two numbers.
∴ (3, 4, 5) is a Pythagoras triplet.

Activity: In ∆ABC, If ∠ABC = 90°, ∠CAB = 30°
∴ ∠BCA = `square`
By theorem of 30° – 60° – 90° triangle,
∴ `square = 1/2` AC and `square = sqrt(3)/2` AC
∴ BC = `1/2 xx square` and AB = `sqrt(3)/2 xx 14`
∴ BC = 7 and AB = `7sqrt(3)`

Activity: In ∆MNK, If ∠MNK = 90°, ∠M = 45° ...(Given)
∴ ∠K = `square` ...(Remaining angle of ∆MNK)
By theorem of 45° – 45° – 90° triangle,
∴ `square = 1/sqrt(2)` MK and `square = 1/sqrt(2)` MK
∴ MN = `1/sqrt(2) xx square` and KN = `1/sqrt(2) xx 6`
∴ MN = `3sqrt(2)` and KN = `3sqrt(2)`

= 5 + 8
= 13
