We have to plug in each set into the Pythagorean theorem:
A ) 11² + 12²    ? 22²
      121 + 144 ?  484
      265 < 484  ( obtuse )
B )  5² + 12² ? 13²
      25 + 144 = 169  ( right triangle )
C ) 7² + 8² ? 9²
     49 + 64 ? 81
      113 > 81   ( acute )
D )  1 + 5 = 6  ( not a triangle )
Answer : A ) 11, 12, 22
