The triangle shown has sides a, b, and c. Given that the measurements of a = 3 m, b = 4 m, and c = 5 m, which of these statements is true?
A. The given triangle is a right triangle.
B. The given triangle is an isosceles triangle.
C. The given triangle is an acute triangle.
D. The given triangle is an obtuse triangle.
A. The given triangle is a right triangle.
This is true because the sides of the triangle satisfy the Pythagorean Theorem: a^2 + b^2 = c^2
3^2 + 4^2 = 5^2
9 + 16 = 25
25 = 25
Therefore, the triangle with sides of 3m, 4m, and 5m is a right triangle.
