Explanation:

According to pythagoras theorem the square length of hypotenuse is equal to sum of other two sides

n^2 + 19^2 = 15^2

n^2 + 361 = 225 if we subtract 361 from both sides

n^2 = -136 but the root of square cannot be negative

I believe there's a mistake in this question so you should ask your teacher.
