Answer:

NO

Explanation:

In a right triangle

Hypotenuse² = Base² +Height²

The given three numbers are 25,23,and 7.

If it is measurements of right triangle,

Hypotenuse = 25

Height = 23 and

base = 7

To check these numbers are sides of right triangle

Base² + Heighet² = 7² + 23² = 49 + 529 = 578 ≠ 25²

Therefore these three sides are not the measurements of a right triangle.
