  1. To determine which triangle is a right triangle, we can use the Pythagorean theorem. A triangle is a right triangle if the square of the longest side is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.

    Let’s check each triangle:

    1. Triangle 1: √13, 6, 7

    Longest side = 7

    ( 7^2 = 49 )

    ( (√13)^2 + 6^2 = 13 + 36 = 49 )

    Yes, this is a right triangle.

    2. Triangle 2: 7, 8, 13

    Longest side = 13

    ( 13^2 = 169 )

    ( 7^2 + 8^2 = 49 + 64 = 113 )

    Not a right triangle.

    3. Triangle 3: 10, 11, 12

    Longest side = 12

    ( 12^2 = 144 )

    ( 10^2 + 11^2 = 100 + 121 = 221 )

    Not a right triangle.

    4. Triangle 4: √10, 9, 8

    Longest side = 9

    ( 9^2 = 81 )

    ( (√10)^2 + 8
