Consider the Pythagorean Theorem;

"Given a triangle, if the triangle is a right triangle then the relationship between sides of length a, b, and c can be expressed by the equation a^2+b^2=c^2, provided c>a and c>b"

You can solve your problem by noting that the converse of the Pythagorean Theorem also holds true, that is;

 "Given a triangle, if the relationship between sides of lengths a, b, and c is expressed by the equation a^2+b^2=c^2, then the triangle is a right triangle, provided c>a and c>b."

Good Luck.
