Answer:

C. DE=52

Explanation:

Because the triangle is equilateral (all sides being equal), the half of each side is equal to the sides of the smaller triangle. Since BC=26, DE would be double.

Answer:

52

Explanation:

Applying Thales' Theorem

(DE) / (2AB) = 26 / (AB)

DE = (2AB)*26/ (AB)

DE = 2*26

DE = 52
