Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Mathematically, for us to have a right triangle, Pythagoras’ theorem must be obeyed

From the theorem, the square of the hypotenuse (longest side) equals the sum of the squares of the two other sides

Let us take a look at the given set of numbers:

2 square is not same as 1 squared + 1 squared

9 squared is not equal to 3 squares + 5 squared

7 squared is not equal to 4 squared + 3 squared

But;

root 2 squared equals 1 squared plus 1 squared and that is our answer
