    We will plug in the numbers and see if it is a Pythagorean triple.

    The Pythagorean theorem: c² = a² + b²

    A) 12² = 6² + 9²

    144 = 36 + 81

    144 ≠ 117

    B) 12² = 10² + 7²

    144 = 100 + 49

    144 ≠ 149

    C) 25² = 18² + 16²

    625 = 324 + 256

    625 ≠ 580

    D) 45² = 36² + 27²

    2,025 = 1,296 + 729

    2,056 = 2,056 (correct)

    Answer: D) 27, 36, 45.
