    The answer A

    Step-by-step explanation:

    B: You need a side that is longer than 2 equal sides. B is incorrect.

    A: Try

    9^2 + 12^2 = 15^2 if that works, A will work.

    81 + 144 = 225

    This works. I used these numbers because they were easier to see.

    0.9^2 + 1.2^2 = 1.5^2

    0.81 + 1.44 = 2.25

    2.25 = 2.25

    That is the answer A

    But we have to check the other two.

    C:

    0.9^2 = 0.81

    1.2^2 = 1.44

    1.8^2 = 3.24 This won't work. 3.24 is just too big.

    D:

    0.9^2 = 0.81

    0.6^2 = 0.36

    1.5^2 = 2.25 It's too far away.
