Triangle UVW is formed by the three squares G, H, and I:


Which statement best explains the relationship between the sides of triangle UVW?


UV+VW=UW, because 81+144=225


(UV)^2+(VW)^2, because 15^2+9^2=12^2


(UV)^2+(VW)^2=(UW)^2, because 81+144=225


UV+VW=UW, because 15^2+9^2=12^2

Verified Answer :

TSO

The phytagorean theorem states a^2 + b^2 = c^2

And so your answer is C. (UV)^2+(VW)^2=(UW)^2, because 81+144=225

 
Since they are squares, the length of one sides square is equal to the area. UV, VW, and UW are all sides on a square. If you square them, you get their area, and then if you add the areas it will prove the phytagorean theorem correct.
