Question

can side lengths 3, 4, and 5 form a right triangle? no yes

Explanation:

Step1: Apply Pythagorean theorem

$$a^{2}+b^{2}=c^{2}$$
Let \(a = 3\), \(b = 4\), \(c = 5\)

Step2: Calculate left - hand side

$$3^{2}+4^{2}=9 + 16=25$$

Step3: Calculate right - hand side

$$5^{2}=25$$
Since \(3^{2}+4^{2}=5^{2}\), side lengths \(3\), \(4\), and \(5\) can form a right triangle.

Answer:

yes
