To make/have/let someone do something
I just have a quick question regarding: to make someone do something, to have someone do something, and to let someone do something.
For example, if I want to say, "I make/have/let him go out," I believe I would say: Le obligo a salir. Le hago a salir. Le dejo a salir. Are those correct? Also, could I say: Le obligo/hago/dejo que salga. (using que + subjunctive)?

Le obligo/hago salir is the same as I make him go Le dejo salir = I let him (go) out

Here "a" just with "obligar". The other verbs without preposition
