Answers (1)

Answer : [False]

Sides of the triangle are 25cm, 5 cm and 24 cm

According to Pythagoras theorem, the square of the hypotenuse of a right-angle triangle is equal to the sum of the square of the remaining two sides.

\Rightarrow \left ( 25 \right )^{2}=\left ( 5 \right )^{2}+\left ( 24 \right )^{2}

        625=25+576

        625 \neq 601

Hence the given statement is false.

The triangle with sides 25 cm, 5 cm and 24 cm is not a right-angle triangle.
