The answer is 15.

Just remember than when you have a right triangle the length of the square of the hypotenuse (longest side) is the sum of the squares of the other 2 sides.

So we take (9^2)(12^2)=hypotenuse^2

81x144 = hypotenuse^2

225 = hypotenuse^2

square root of 225 = hypotenuse

15 = hypotenuse
