The answer to, Is the Triangle with side lengths of 10 in., 24 in., and 26 in, a right triangle is: Yes.  For right triangles, the sum of the squares of the shorter sides is equal to the square of the longer side.  Thus, this is a right triangle if 10^2+24^2=26^2.  Expanding these squares, we have 100+576=676, which is true.  Thus, the triangle is right.
yes, 10 inches on bottom, 24 inches on the side, and 26 inches on the slope. draw it out and it is a right triangle.
