A Right Triangle must satisfy the Converse of the Pythagorean Theorem: a2 + b2 = c2
From the given side lengths, let a = 1.8, b = 8, c = 8.2 (c cannot be less than a or b)
a2 + b2 = (1.8)2 + (8)2
a2 + b2 = 3.24 + 64 = 67.24
c2 = (8.2)2 = 67.24
a2 + b2 = c2 (67.24 = 67.24)
Therefore, a Triangle with side lengths of 1.8, 8 and 8.2 is a Right Triangle
