Determine whether a Triangle with side lengths of 39, 80 and 89 is a Right Triangle

A Right Triangle must satisfy the Converse of the Pythagorean Theorem: a2 + b2 = c2
From the given side lengths, let a = 39, b = 80, c = 89  (c cannot be less than a or b)
a2 + b2 = (39)2 + (80)2
a2 + b2 = 1,521 + 6,400 = 7,921
c2 = (89)2 = 7,921
a2 + b2 = c2  (7,921 = 7,921)
Therefore, a Triangle with side lengths of 39, 80 and 89 is a Right Triangle
Note: Since the side lengths are positive integers and the GCF(39, 80, 89) = 1, they are a primitive Pythagorean Triple
