Answer:

  No

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratios of triangle side lengths are ...

  4 : 6 : 8 = 2 : 3 : 4

This is an arithmetic progression.

The only arithmetic progression of side lengths that makes a right triangle is ...

  3 : 4 : 5

The triangle is not a right triangle, so AB is not a tangent.
