Answer:

Triangle B is right

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the converse theorem of Pythagoras.

If the square of the longest side in a triangle equals the sum of the squares of the other 2 sides then the triangle is right.

Triangle A

longest side squared = 36² = 1296

26² + 18² = 676 + 324 = 1000 ≠ 1296

Hence triangle A is not right

Triangle B

longest side squared = 25² = 625

20² + 15² = 400 + 225 = 625 ← correct

Hence triangle B is right
