Question

What is the length of leg y of the right triangle?
A. 10
B. 14
C. 24
D. 26​

Answer 1

Answer:

A. 10

Step-by-step explanation:

This triangle is a right angled triangle.

So we can use the Pythagorean theorem ie.,

a² + b² = c²

24² + y² = 26²

576 + y² = 676

y² = 676 - 576

y² = 100

$y \: = \: \sqrt{100}$

y = 10
