Answer:

yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Yes this triangle is right angled and can be justified using the Pythagorean theorem. The theorem states that: [tex]a^{2} +b^{2} = c^{2}[/tex]. Substitute using the given values:

(9^2)+(12^2)=15^2

81 + 144 = 255

255 = 255.

It satisfies the theorem therefore it is a right angle triangle.
