Answer:

B: No, because 16 squared plus 30 squared is not equal to 34 squared

Step-by-step explanation:

So if she wants to make a right triangle that would look like this

           | \

           |     \

30mm |         \ 34mm

           |            \

           |_______\

              16mm

Which would make the Pythagorean theorem look like this

16^2 + 30^2 = 34^2

265 + 900 = 1156

1165 = 1156

So you answer would be B
