Trigonometry Lesson
Determine whether or not the following sets of numbers could represent a right triangle. If not, classify the triangle is acute or obtuse.
Use the Pythagorean Theorem to test.
If a2 + b2 = c2, then it is a right triangle.
If a2 + b2 < c2, then it is an obtuse triangle.
If a2 + b2 > c2, then it is an acute triangle.
