Question

37. Calculate the value of c in the triangle below.

Answer 1

26 is the correct answer

Answer 2

c = 26 in the triangle below.

Explanation:

Here use the Pythagorean Theorem which states that for a right triangle,

a² + b² = c².

So here we input the triangle values.

a² + b² = c²

10² + 24² = c²

100 + 576 = c²

c² = 676

c = 26.
