Hey there! :)

For this, you have to use the Pythagorean Theorem.

 a² + b² = c² is the same as c² - a² = b²

c = 26
26² = 26 × 26 = 676

a = 10
10² = 10 × 10 = 100

676 - 100 = 576

√576 = 24

b = 24 cm

Hope this helps :)

Hello!

Use the Pythagorean Theorem: a² + b² = c² which is also the same as c² - a² = b²

c = 26
26² = 676

a = 10
10² = 100

676 - 100 = 576

The square root of 576 is 24

Your answer is 24 cm

I hope this helps you and have a great day!
