    Set 4: 12 ft, 16 ft, 20 ft

    Step-by-step explanation:

    A right angle triangle is a triangle in which one of the angles is a right angle (i. e 90°). The side opposite to the right angle is the longest side and is called the hypotenuse. The Pythagoras theorem for a right angle triangle states the the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the square of the remaining two sides.

    For set 1:

    4² + 5² = 16 + 25 = 41

    6² = 36

    6² ≠ 4² + 5²

    It does not form a right triangle

    For set 2:

    8² + 12² = 64 + 144 = 208

    20² = 400

    20² ≠ 8² + 12²

    It does not form a right triangle

    For set 3:

    10² + 20² = 100 + 400 = 500

    30² = 900

    30² ≠ 10² + 20²

    It does not form a right triangle

    For set 3:

    12² + 16² = 144 + 256 = 400

    20² = 400

    20² = 12² + 16²

    It forms a right triangle
