Correct option is B
Given:
Given sides of Δ ABC are a, b, c respectively.
Given the sides satisfy the equation
(a – 8)2+ (b - 15)2+ (c - 17)2= 0.
Concept:
Square of a number is always non-negative.
In a right-angled triangle, the square of the largest side equals to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.
Solution:
Given sides of Δ ABC are a, b, c respectively.
Given the sides satisfy the equation
(a – 8)2 + (b - 15)2 + (c - 17)2 = 0.
The square of a number is non-negative.
For the sum of the non-negative numbers to be zero, each number should be zero.
∴ a - 8 = 0 , b - 15 = 0 and c - 17 = 0.
=> a = 8, b = 15, c = 17.
We can find that 172 = 82 + 152
Or c2 = a2 + b2.
∴ Δ ABC is a right-angled triangle.
