Answer:

not right-angled

Explanation:

An isosceles right triangle has side lengths in the ratios ...

1 : 1 : √2

The triangle given here has side lengths in the ratios ...

3 : 11 : 11

Additional comment

There are several ways you can look at this to determine it is not a right triangle.

  • side ratios, as above
  • the longest side of a right triangle is longer than either of the other two sides
  • no side of this triangle is a diameter of the circumcircle
