When we say right triangle, it is a triangle that has at least one angle equal to 90 degrees. In addition, an isosceles triangle can also be considered a right triangle given that it has two sides that are equal. In the given measurements above, the set is not considered as measurements of a right triangle. Therefore, the answer is FALSE. Hope this answer helps.
