    Let's see by using the Pythagorean theorem.

    3 and 4 are legs. 3 is the shortest leg.

    7 is the hypotenuse.

    The theorem states that:

    a² + b² = c²

    a = 3

    b = 4

    c = 7

    3² + 4² = 7²

    9 + 16 = 49

    25 = 49 (Incorrect)

    So it is not possible for 3,4,7 to be a right triangle.
