Suppose A Triangle Has Sides A B And C And That A2 B2 Gt C2 Let 0 Be The Measure Of The Angle Opposite The Side Of Length C Which Of The Following Must Be True class=

Sagot :

Hello,

Answer A

Indeed:

[tex]c^2=c^2+b^2-2ab*cos(\theta) < a^2+b^2\\\\-cos(\theta)<0\\\\cos(\theta)>0\ \Longrightarrow \theta < 90^o[/tex]

True statements are:

A.  [tex]\theta[/tex] is an acute angle.

C. The triangle is a right triangle.

D. The triangle is not a right triangle.

What is angle?

An angle is a combination of two rays (half-lines) with a common endpoint.

Given:

a² + b² > c²

as, the triangle with sides a, b and c.

If this is a right triangle, then the condition a² + b² > c² apply.

Using cosine law.

angle> 90 degrees which is an obtuse angle.

Also, cos [tex]\theta[/tex] is negative.

Hence, the conditions that are true are A, C and D.
