are you sure to added bellow maven dependencies (jar files) to your project?

<!-- Need this to compile JSP -->
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.tomcat.embed</groupId>
    <artifactId>tomcat-embed-jasper</artifactId>
    <scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>
<!-- JSP API -->
<dependency>
    <groupId>javax.servlet.jsp</groupId>
    <artifactId>jsp-api</artifactId>
    <version>2.2</version>
</dependency>
<!-- Servlet API -->
<dependency>
    <groupId>javax.servlet</groupId>
    <artifactId>javax.servlet-api</artifactId>
    <version>3.1.0</version>
</dependency>

Here is the code of a JSP created by Netbeans for a Web App project. It works fine.

<%@page contentType="text/html" pageEncoding="UTF-8"%>
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
   "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">

<html>
    <head>
        <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
        <title>JSP Page</title>
    </head>
    <body>
        <h1>Hello World!</h1>
    </body>
</html>

It looks like in the langage attribute, there is a space before java, can't say if this is the reason, can't say if it is needed.

EDIT

I did test your code, Netbeans tell me that the language attribute isn't valide, remove the space to correct this. It works fine

<%@page contentType="text/html; charset=UTF-8" language="java"%>
<html>
    <head>
        <title>JSP Page</title>
    </head>
    <body>
        <h1>Hello World!</h1>
    </body>
</html>
