How do you know that the triangle with side lengths 6, 8, and c is a right triangle?

If c is the longest side, then c must be equal to 10 in order to have a right triangle. This is due to the pythagorean theorem

a^2+b^2 = c^2

6^2+8^2 = c^2

36+64 = c^2

100 = c^2

c^2 = 100

sqrt(c^2) = sqrt(100) ... apply square root to both sides

c = sqrt(100)

c = 10

So if we know that c = 10, then the side lengths 6,8,c form a right triangle.

i think it is everything has to equal 180 so, if i correct 4=c. 6=d. 8=a. 7=b. and the last question would be c. because they are parallel lines and they are congruent.

step-by-step explanation:

the reason everything has to equal to 180 is because that is how it works. i'm guessing that is its rule. 4 and 8 are congruent and parallel so, that would be 30+30 because they have the same number. it would equal 60. 6 and 7 are congruent and parallel so, that would be 30+30 because they have the same number. it would equal 60. 60+60 is 180. so, now you have your answer

in problems involving proportions, we can use cross products to test whether two ratios are equal and form a proportion. to find the cross products of a proportion, we multiply the outer terms, called the extremes, and the middle terms, called the means.
