Answer:

B. 10 yd., 14 yd., 17 yd.

Explanation:

In a right triangle, the squares of the sums of the two shorter sides must equal the square of the longer side(which is the hypotenuse)

From the combinations given only the set 10 yd, 14 yd. and 17 yd does not obey this rule

10² + 14² = 296
17² = 298
So this does not match
