Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

A right triangle's formula, according to Pythagorean's Theorem, is a² + b² = c². a and b are the two legs, and c is the hypotenuse. To solve, we must substitute the variables with the given measurements.

9² + 12² = 15²

Let's now solve:

81 + 144 = 225

225 = 225

The formula works out in the end, so it is a right triangle!
