A triangle is said to be a triangle based on the Pythagorean theorem, if the square of the longest side equals the sum of the squares of the other smaller sides of the triangle.

9² = 7² + 5²

81 = 74 (NOT TRUE), therefore, the triangle with the side lengths 7 yd, 5 yd, 9 yd, is not a right triangle.

26² = 10² + 24²
