Answer:
NO
Step-by-step explanation:
to work this out, you will need to use the Pythagoras theorem. This only works for a right triangle so it will prove if this is a right angle.
Pythagoras Theorem:
[tex]a^{2} +b^{2} =c^{2}[/tex]
a and b are the two smaller sides (6 and 14 yards)
c is the largest side (19 yards)
to calculate this, place the lengths of sides a and b into the equation:
[tex]6^{2} + 14^{2} = 232[/tex]
the formula states that the answer (232) is the length of side c squared. to calculate just the length of c, we need to square root 232.
[tex]\sqrt{232}=15.23... yards[/tex]
this is NOT equal to 19 yards (the length of side c) therefore this NOT a right triangle as the Pythagoras theorem only works for right triangles
I HOPE THIS WAS HELPFUL :-)
