1. **Stating the problem:**
We have a right-angled triangle with sides 3 m, 4 m, and 5 m. We want to find the sum of the two non-right angles (a).
2. **Formula and rules:**
In any triangle, the sum of all angles is $180^\circ$. In a right triangle, one angle is $90^\circ$. The sum of the other two angles is therefore:
$$\text{Sum of other angles} = 180^\circ - 90^\circ = 90^\circ$$
3. **Intermediate work:**
Since the triangle is right-angled at $C$, angles at $A$ and $B$ add up to $90^\circ$.
4. **Answer:**
The sum of the two non-right angles is $90^\circ$.

**Next, part b:**
1. **Problem:**
Check if a triangle with sides 2 m, 3 m, and 4 m is right-angled.
2. **Formula:**
Use the Pythagorean theorem: For sides $a$, $b$, and hypotenuse $c$, if $a^2 + b^2 = c^2$, the triangle is right-angled.
3. **Work:**
Longest side $c=4$, other sides $a=2$, $b=3$.
Calculate:
$$a^2 + b^2 = 2^2 + 3^2 = 4 + 9 = 13$$
$$c^2 = 4^2 = 16$$
Since $13 \neq 16$, the triangle is not right-angled.
4. **Answer:**
Rói is correct; the triangle with sides 2, 3, and 4 is not right-angled.
---
**Part c:**
1. **Problem:**
Find the lengths of the shorter sides in a right triangle with hypotenuse 6 m.
2. **Formula:**
Use the Pythagorean theorem: $a^2 + b^2 = c^2$ with $c=6$.
3. **Work:**
We want integer or simple values for $a$ and $b$ such that:
$$a^2 + b^2 = 6^2 = 36$$
Examples:
- $3^2 + \sqrt{27}^2 = 9 + 27 = 36$
- $4^2 + 2^2 = 16 + 4 = 20$ (no)
- $\sqrt{12}^2 + \sqrt{24}^2 = 12 + 24 = 36$
4. **Answer:**
Possible side lengths are $a=3$ m and $b=\sqrt{27} \approx 5.2$ m, or other pairs satisfying $a^2 + b^2 = 36$.
---
**Summary:**
- a) Sum of other angles is $90^\circ$.
- b) Triangle with sides 2, 3, 4 is not right-angled.
- c) For hypotenuse 6, shorter sides satisfy $a^2 + b^2 = 36$.
