    no

    Step-by-step explanation:

    We can use the Pythagorean theorem to check

    a^2 + b^2 = c^2

    11^2+13^2 = 17^2

    121+169 = 289

    410 does not equal 289

    This is not a right triangle

    Answer: no

    Step-by-step Explanation: If the sum of the squares of two sides of a triangle is equal to the square of the third side or a² + b² = c², then the triangle is right.

    In this problem, we're given a triangle that has

    sides with lengths of 11, 13, and 17.

    Let's plug these lengths into the pythagorean theorem.

    (11) ² + (13) ² = (17) ² or 121 + 169 = 289.

    Since 121 + 169 ≠ 289, this is not a right triangle.
