If the legs of a right triangle are 10 and 24 then the hypoustnuse is?

Answer 1

In a right triangle, the length of the hypotenuse is calculated as A^2 + B^2 = C^2, where A and B are the two sides adjoining the 90 degree angle. (In computers, the symbol ^ means "raised to the power of".)

So, 10^2 = 100.

24^2 = 576

So C^2 = 676, which means that C = 26
