A triangle has side lengths of 24 in. 32 in. and 40 in. Is the triangle acute, obtuse, or right?
Solution
Let \"c\" be the longest side on each set of three numbers.
 If c^2 = a^2+b^2, the triangle is right
 ---
 If c^2 > a^2 + b^2, the triangle is obtuse
 ---
 If c^2 < a^2 + b^2, the triangle is acute.
So here
40^2 = 1600
24^2 + 32^2 = 1600
Therefore , the given triangle is Right triangle.
