Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the converse of Pythagoras' identity.

If the longest side squared is equal to the sum of the squares of the other 2 sides then the triangle is right.

The longest side = 61, thus

61² = 3721

12² + 60² = 144 + 3600 = 3744 ≠ 3721

Thus these sides do not form a right triangle.
