Answer:

It is a right triangle.  I'm not sure how else the question is asked to be completed.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use the Pythagorean theorem to check if a triangle is a right triangle.

8.5 is the biggest number so if it is a right triangle it would be the hypotenuse.  So that is how we'll set it up.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

4^2 + 7.5^2 = 8.5^2

16 + 56.25 = 72.5

72.25 = 72.25

Since it works out then the triangle is a right triangle.
