Question

What is the length of the hypotenuse of the triangle?

Answer 1

A. 26ft

Explanation:

h= 26ft

Answer 2

Explanation:

Hey there!

Here;

ABC is a Right angled triangle.

Taking reference angle as angleA.

Now;

Hypotenuse (h) = AB

Perpendicular (BC)= 24 ft.

Base(AC)= 10 ft.

Now, Using Pythagoras relation;

`h = \sqrt{ {p}^(2) + {b}^(2) }`

Put all values.

`h = \sqrt{ {24}^(2) + {10}^(2) }`

Simplify it.

`h = √(576 + 100)`

`h = √(676)`

Therefore, h= 26ft.

ANS: OPTION A.

Hope it helps....
