Millennium Park has an outdoor concert theater. Before a concert, the area reserved for special seating is roped off in the shape of a triangle as shown below. How can the converse of the Pythagorean theorem help you determine whether the roped off area is in the shape of a right triangle? (2 points)

The converse of Pythagorean Theorem states:

If the square length of the longes side of a triangle is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides, then it's a right triangle.

We use the converse of Pythagorean Theorem to prove that a triangle is a right triangle. It's like the inverse use of the theorem. Often, this theorem is used to find the length of a side of a triangle when we already know it's a right triangle. However, when we don't know that is a right triangle, we use the converse to prove it.

option a is correct.

step-by-step explanation:

scale factor: it is used to find proportional measurements.

proportions means having the same ratio.

scale factor is the ratio of the model measurement to the actual measurement in a simplest form.

or we can say that the ratio of any two corresponding lengths in two similar geometric figures

if the scale factor is more than 1, then it is an enlargement,

if the scale factor less than 1, then it is a reduction.

given the two geometric figure:

by definition of proportions, we have

-12 > a

step-by-step explanation:

-11 > 1 + a

subtract 1 from each side

-11 -1> 1 -1+ a

-12 > a
