Verified Answer :

In order for us to get the hypotenuse of a right triangle, let's follow the Pythagorean Equation:
h^2 = a^2 + b^2

Getting the hypotenuse:
h = square root (a^2 + b^2)
h = square root (10^2 + 24^2)
h = square root (100 + 576)
h = square root (676)
h = 26

So the hypotenuse is equal to 26 cm.

Getting the hypotenuse:

h = square root (a^2 + b^2)

h = square root (10^2 + 24^2)

h = square root (100 + 576)

h = square root (676)

h = 26

So the hypotenuse is equal to 26 cm.
