Answer:

Yes, is a right triangle

Explanation:

To know if you can build a right triangle with those sides we have to make the following equality

h² = l1² + l2²

The hypotenuse is always the longest side so it should be 39

we check the equality of the equation

39² = 15² + 36²

1521 = 225 + 1296

1521 = 1521

Equality was fulfilled so it is a right triangle
