The correct equation using the Pythagorean Theorem for the given right-angled triangle is:
\[ 9^2 + 12^2 = c^2 \]
A right-angled triangle is labeled as follows: the height is labeled 9 inches; the base is labeled 12 inches; and hypotenuse is labeled c.
Use the Pythagorean Theorem to give an equation that is true for the given triangle. Do not solve the equation.(1 point)

92+c2=1229 squared plus c squared is equal to 12 squared
122−92=c212 squared minus 9 squared is equal to c squared
c2+122=92c squared plus 12 squared is equal to 9 squared
9^2+12^2=c^2
