Answer:

A. The missing value is 10m

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure shown in the diagram is a right angled triangle. The three sides are the hypotenuse, opposite and adjacent respectively.

We will be using Pythagoras theorem to solve for unknown side.

According to the theorem,

hypotenuse² = opposite²+adjacent²

Given hypotenuse = 26m

Opposite = 24m

Adjacent = a

26² = 24²+a²

a² = 26²-24²

a² = 676-576

a² = 100

a = √100

a = 10m

The value of the missing side in the figure below is 10 meters.

It should be noted that the longest side in a triangle is the hypotenuse. In this case, the longest side is 26m.

Therefore, to find the other side of the triangle goes thus:

Adjacent = 26² - 24²

Adjacent = 676 - 576

Adjacent = ✓100

Adjacent = 10

Therefore, the value of the missing side in the figure below is 10 meters.
