Based on the Pythagorean Theorem, the relationship of the sides in this triangle would be that the sum of the squares of the two smaller sides is equal to the square of the longest side. In this case, based on the labeled angles, side MO would be the longest side (labeled as 'm'), side NO would be one of the smaller sides (labeled as 'o'), and side MN would be the other smaller side (labeled as 'n'). So, according to the Pythagorean Theorem, we would have the relationship:
$$
m^2 = o^2 + n^2
$$
Use the image to answer the question.
A triangle has the vertices labeled upper M upper N upper O. Upper N upper O is labeled m, upper M upper N is labeled o, and upper O upper M is labeled n. Angle upper N measures 62 degrees and angle upper M measures 28 degrees.
