    This is simple, we are looking for Pythagorean triples. to find one all we have to do is plug the values into the Pythagorean theorem.

    c=√a²+b²

    11=√6²+8²

    11=√36+64

    11=√100

    11≠10

    25=√10²+24²

    25=√100+576

    25=√676

    25≠26

    26=√7²+24²

    26=√49+576

    26=√626

    26≠25

    17=√8²+15²

    17=√64+225

    17=√289

    17=17

    The last set of numbers, 8, 15, and 17, is in fact a Pythagorean triple, therefore they are the side measurements of a right triangle.
