Question

What is the length of the hypotenuse of the triangle?

Answer 1

Answer:

26 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, we can use the Pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

10^2+24^2 = c^2

100 +576 = c^2

676 = c^2

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(676) = sqrt(c^2)

26 = c

Answer 2

Answer:

26 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagoras theorem

a^2+b^2=c^2

10^2+24^2=676

square root of 676= 26
