Solution Steps

Step 1: Classifying Triangle A

For Triangle A with sides \(3\), \(4\), and \(5\):

  • Calculate \(3^2 + 4^2 = 9 + 16 = 25\)
  • Compare with \(5^2 = 25\)
  • Since \(3^2 + 4^2 = 5^2\), Triangle A is classified as a Right triangle.
Step 2: Classifying Triangle B

For Triangle B with sides \(5\), \(12\), and \(13\):

  • Calculate \(5^2 + 12^2 = 25 + 144 = 169\)
  • Compare with \(13^2 = 169\)
  • Since \(5^2 + 12^2 = 13^2\), Triangle B is classified as a Right triangle.
Step 3: Classifying Triangle C

For Triangle C with sides \(7\), \(24\), and \(25\):

  • Calculate \(7^2 + 24^2 = 49 + 576 = 625\)
  • Compare with \(25^2 = 625\)
  • Since \(7^2 + 24^2 = 25^2\), Triangle C is classified as a Right triangle.
Step 4: Classifying Triangle D

For Triangle D with sides \(8\), \(15\), and \(17\):

  • Calculate \(8^2 + 15^2 = 64 + 225 = 289\)
  • Compare with \(17^2 = 289\)
  • Since \(8^2 + 15^2 = 17^2\), Triangle D is classified as a Right triangle.

Final Answer

All triangles A, B, C, and D are classified as Right triangles. Thus, the final answer is: \[ \boxed{\text{Triangle A: Right, Triangle B: Right, Triangle C: Right, Triangle D: Right}} \]
