Answer:

No

Explanation:

from Pythagoras theorem, if the triangle is right angled square of largest side should be equal to sum of the squares of smaller two sides. the square of largest side is 18^2= 324

9^2=81 and the last side is 17^2= 289

81+ 289= 370

This triangle is NOT a right triangle.
