Answer: 15 units

Step-by-step explanation:

        Since this is a right triangle, we will use the Pythagorean theorem. a and b are the legs, c id the hypotenuse. Here, we need to solve for the hypotenuse.

        a² + b² = c²

        9² + 12² = c²

        81 + 144 = c²

        225 = c²

        [tex]\sqrt{225}[/tex] = c

        15 = c
