1. Answer in a short paragraph and with diagrams

The relationship between the lengths of the side of the right triangle. The sum of the areas of the squares attached to the legs of a right triangle equals the area of a square attached to the hypotenuse.

the pythagorean relationship can be used to show if a triangle is a right triangle.
Left side:
6 squared+8 square= 10 squared
(6x6)+(8x8)=(10x10)
36+64=100
square root of "C" squared= square root of 100cm squared is 10
C=10cm
the sum of the areas of the two smaller squares is 100cm squared.
the triangle is a right triangle.
