Final Answer:

Answer 1

Using Pythagorean’s theorem
Side = 24 cm

Hence perimeter = 24+24+10+10
= 68 cm

Hence answer is 68cm

Answer 2

`{c}^(2) = {a}^(2) + {b}^(2)`

`{b}^(2) = {c}^(2) - {a}^(2)`

`{b}^(2) = {26}^(2) - {10}^(2)`

`{b}^(2) = 676 - 100`

`{b}^(2) = 576`

`\sqrt{ {b}^(2) } = √(576)`

`b = 24`

p = 10+10 +24+24

p= 68
