    All right triangle will conform to the Pythagorean Theorem where the square of the 2 shorter legs is equal to the square of the longest leg.

    ⇒⇒ a² + b² = c²

    To prove if a triangle with sides 18m, 24m, and 30m is a right triangle:

    a² + b² = 18² + 24²

    a² + b² = 324 + 576

    a² + b² = 900

    a² + b² = 30²

    Since 18² + 24² = 30², which is the square of the longest side ⇒ this is a right triangle.

    Answer: The set of 18m, 24m, and 30m is a right triangle.
