C. In a right triangle, the square of the hypotenuse equals the sums of the squares of the legs.

pythagorean theorem: a^2 + b^2 = c^2, where the hypotenuse = c and the legs are a and b. i hope this helps you!

For this case, the first thing to do is write the Pythagorean theorem for a rectangular triangle.

We have then:

[tex] a ^ 2 + b ^ 2 = c ^ 2
[/tex]

Where,

a, b: sides of the rectangle triangle

c: hypotenuse of the triangle rectangle

Therefore, based on the definition we have to:

The sum of the square of the sides of the right triangle is equal to the square of the hypotenuse.

Answer:

c. in a right triangle, the square of the hypotenuse equals the sum of the squares of the legs
