Two sides of a right triangle are given below. Determine the length of the missingside.a = 24C = 26b = ?

Answer:
b = 10
Explanation:
Since the diagram is a right-angled triangle, to get the missing, length, we will use the Pythagoras theorem as shown;
[tex]c^2=a^2+b^2[/tex]Substitute the given values into the expression to get the value of b
[tex]\begin{gathered} 26^2=24^2+b^2 \\ 676=576+b^2 \\ b^2=676-576 \\ b^2=100 \\ b=\sqrt[]{100} \\ b=10 \end{gathered}[/tex]Hence the length of the missing side is 10
