It is known that in a right triangle: a) The height drawn from the top of the right angle is the geometric mean of the projections of the legs on the hypotenuse; b) the leg is the geometric mean of the hypotenuse and the projection of this leg to the hypotenuse. Are the converse statements true? Formulate them and justify the answer. Is it possible to formulate the criterion of a right triangle based on these statements? If possible, then how? If not, why?
