LM = √(5^2+3^2) = √34
LN = √(4^2+1^2) = √17
MN = √(1^1+4^2) = √17
So, it is isosceles.
But since
√17^2 + √17^2 = √34^2
17+17 = 34
it is a right triangle.

How do you know its a right angle when the answer is 34 i thought it has to be 90?

I'm not talking about angles, but sides. Remember the Pythagorean Theorem?
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
