First Problem
Use the Pythagorean theorem.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
24^2 + 10^2 = c^2
576 + 100 = c^2
676 = c^2
c^2 = 676
c = 26
Answer: B) 26 m
Second Problem
From the first problem, we know that the lengths 10, 24, 26 work in the Pythagorean theorem, so the answer is D) 10, 24, 26
Third Problem
Use the Pythagorean theorem.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
8^2 + b^2 = 10^2
64 + b^2 = 100
b^2 = 36
b = 6
Answer: D) 6.0 ft
