[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

To determine if triangle DEF is a right triangle, we can use the Pythagorean theorem.

If a triangle is a right triangle, then the square of the length of the longest side is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.

In this case, the longest side is 50 and the other two sides are 40 and 32.

50^2 = 2500
40^2 + 32^2 = 1600 + 1024 = 2624

Since 2500 is not equal to 2624, triangle DEF is not a right triangle.
