Question

Use the image to answer the question.

A triangle has the vertices labeled upper E upper F upper D. The height upper E upper F is labeled 15, the base upper D upper F is labeled 20, and the hypotenuse upper D upper E is labeled 25. Angle upper E measures 60 degrees and angle upper D measures 30 degrees.

Does the Pythagorean Theorem apply to this triangle? How do you know?

No, because the angle at point cap f is 90 degrees .

Yes, because it is a right triangle.
Yes, because it is a right triangle.

No, because the triangle is not a right triangle.

Answer 1

I don't thinl thats a right triange, the 60 and the 30 are across from each other and don't meet at a corner

Answer 2

The correct response is:

**Yes, because it is a right triangle.**

This is because one of the angles in the triangle (angle at point F) measures 90 degrees, which makes it a right triangle. The Pythagorean Theorem applies specifically to right triangles.
