Answer:

Triangle 2

Step-by-step explanation:

5, 12, 13

Use the Pythagorean Theorem

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

a = 5

b = 12

c = 13

25 + 144 = 169

a and b are side lengths

c is the hypotenuse

The theorem states that the square of the side lengths of a right triangle added together equals the square of the hypotenuse

Answer:

B is the right triangle because the sum of the square of each of the two shortest sides will equal the square of the longest side.

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagorean Theorem says if a triangle is a right triangle with side lengths a, b, and c, then a^2 + b^2 = c^2 where c is the length of the longest side.

So, A. 16^2= 7^2 + 12^2  256 does not = 193 NOT a right triangle

      B. 13^2= 5^2 + 12^2  169 = 169 Yes this is a right triangle

      C. 9^2= 4^2 + 5^2  81 does not = 41 NOT a right triangle

      D. 19^2= 8^2 + 15^2  361 does not = 289 NOT a right triangle
