Select the procedure that can be used to show the converse of the Pythagorean theorem using side lengths chosen from 6 cm, 9 cm, 12 cm, and
15 cm.
A. Knowing that 62 + 122 + 152, draw the 6 cm side and the 12 cm
side with a right angle between them. The 15 cm side will fit to
form a right triangle.
B. Knowing that 92 + 122 = 152 draw the 9 cm side and the 12 cm
side with a right angle between them. The 15 cm side will fit to
form a right triangle.
C. Knowing that 62 +92 < 122, draw the 6 cm side and the 9 cm side
with a right angle between them. The 12 cm side will fit to form a
right triangle
D. Knowing that 92 + 122 = 152, draw any two of the sides with a right
angle between them. The third side will fit to form a right triangle.
