Step-by-step explanation:

If we draw a diagram according to the question,we will see that it is making a triangle, and the perpendicular and the base is known, but the hypotenuse is not known. So we can find the hypotenuse by using the Pythagoras theorem,i.e hypotenuse^2=base^2+perpendicular^2

$\sqrt{24^2 + 10^2}$

⇒ $\sqrt{576 + 100}$

⇒ $\sqrt{676}$

⇒ 26

So he is 26 m from starting point.
