Question

Find the missing side length by applying the pythagorean theorem. WILL GIVE BRAINIEST TO FIRST ANSWER THATS HELPFUL

Answer 1

Answer:

missing side²=26²-10²=676-100=576

missing side=24cm.

Answer 2

Answer:

24 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

$\huge\bigstar{\large \tt\underline\bold\red{Phythagoras \: \: theorem}}\huge\bigstar$

$\tt {(Hypotenuse)}^{2} = {(base)}^{2} + {(height)}^{2}$

By applying Phythagoras theorem,

$\tt {(26)}^{2} = {(base)}^{2} + {(10)}^{2} \\ \\ \tt \to676 = {(base)}^{2} + 100 \\ \\ \tt \to676 - 100 = {(base)}^{2} \\ \\ \tt \to {(base)}^{2} = 576 \\ \\ \tt \to \: base = \sqrt{576} = 24 \: cm$
