Question

PQR is a triangle, right-angled at P. If PQ = 10 cm and PR = 24 cm, find QR.

Answer 1

Answer:

the answer is 26cm

Step-by-step explanation

by using the pythagoras theorem we know that If there is right angled triangle ABC side AB SQUARE + SIDE AC SQUARE WIIL BE EQUAL TO SIDE BC SQUARE

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In triangle PQR,

PQ = 10cm, PR = 24 cm

Angle P = 90 degrees

According to pythagoras theorem,

(hypotenuse)² = (side)² + (side)²

Let the hypotenuse be x.

(QR)² = (PQ)² + (PR)²

(x)² = (10)² + (24)²

x² = 100 + 576

x² = 676

x = √676

x = 26

∴ Hypotenuse QR is 26 cm.
