Can 50mm, 13mm and 12mm be a right triangle?

Answer 1

I do not think so.

Try with Pythagora's Theorem:

It cannot even be a triangle let alone a right angled one.

If #a#, #b# and #c# are the lengths of the sides of a triangle and #c# is the largest value, then #a+b >= c#
#12 + 13 = 25 < 50#

Answer 3

A triangle with sides 50mm, 13mm, and 12mm can not form a right triangle

By the Pythagorean Theorem, to be a right triangle: the square of the longest side must be equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides

#color(white)("XXXX")##50^2 = 2500#
#color(white)("XXXX")#1#3^2+12^2 = 169+144 = 313#
#50^2!=13^2+12^2#

Also Note that no triangle can exist with sides 50mm, 13mm, and 12mm. Explanation 2: To form a triangle, every side must be less than the sum of the other two sides. Picture a line segment of length 50mm with a line segment of 13 mm attached to one end and a line segment of 12 mm attached to the other end. The 13mm and 12mm line segments can not reach far enough to touch each other.

Answer 4

No, not according to the Pythagorean theorem.

If you plug in the side lengths into the Pythagorean theorem, assuming that #50# is the hypotenuse and that side lengths are #13# and #12#, you can calculate whether the triangle is a right triangle or not.
#13^2+12^2 = 313#, while #sqrt(313)# certainly doesn't equal #50^2#.
#a^2+b^2 = c^2#

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
