The correct answer is: **Yes, because it is a right triangle.**
The Pythagorean Theorem applies specifically to right triangles, which are triangles that contain one angle measuring 90 degrees. If the triangle in question has such an angle, then the Pythagorean Theorem can be used to relate the lengths of the sides of the triangle (a² + b² = c², where c is the length of the hypotenuse).
