Answer:

YES

Explanation:

To see if it is a right triangle, find the relationship using:


a^2+b^2_
c^2

If the sum of a and b squared is equal to c (the Pythagorean theorem) then it is a right triangle.

Insert the values, with the biggest number being c (this is because c represents the hypotenuse, and the hypotenuse is the longest side of a triangle):


15^2+36^2_
39^2

Simplify exponents:


225+1296_
1521

Simplify addition:


1521_
1521

Find the relationship:


1521=1521

It is a right triangle.

Finito.
