    Yes, right triangle

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Since it is a right triangle, we can use Pythagorean Theorem.

    a^2+b^2=c^2

    a and b are the legs, or shorter sides, and c is the hypotenuse, or the longest side.

    We have 3 side lengths: 6, 8 and 10

    6 and 8 are the shorter legs, so they are a and b.

    10 is the longest leg, so it is c

    Substitute the values into the equation, and see if it is true.

    6^2+8^2=10^2

    Evaluate the exponents

    36+64=100

    100=100

    Since this is a true statement, these sides can make a right triangle.
