Question

Using the Pythagorean Theorem What is the length of side a when b=24 and
c=262

Answer 1

this would be 261!!!

Answer 2

261

Explanation:

a²+b² = c²

Given, a = ?

b = 24

c = 262

a² = c² - b²

a²= 262² - 24²

a² = 68644 - 576

a² = 68068

a = √68068

∴ a= 260.89844

can be said as 261
