Tyrone is working with two other students to build a border around the school’s triangular garden. Each student brought in one side of the border, but they all used different units to measure the side lengths. The first side is 312 inches long, the second side is 20 feet long, and the third side is 12 yards long. If the measurements need to be in feet, will the three border pieces make a right triangle?

Convert the third side into feet using a proportion.
