Answer:

No

Explanation:

Use Pythagorean theorem to solve this problem

a² + b² = c²

a and b will be the smaller numbers are the hypotenuse must be greater than a and b individually but smaller than a and b added together

a = 9

b = 14

c = 15

9² + 14² = 15²

81 + 196 = 225

277 = 225; NOT true
