Well that's quite easy. There is a short cut. So 12 divided by 2 is 4. Then 6 divided by 2 is 3. There is a thing called a Pythagorean Triple. And the first one is 3,4 (which is the missing side) and 5. That is the most commonly used set and so are the number's multiples. Therefore the missing leg's length is 4 centimeters.

An oblique cylinder has a radius of 10 units and slant length of 26 units. What is the volume of the cylinder
marysya [2.9K]
The formula of the volume of an oblique cylinder is V = \pir²h where \pi is 3.14, r is the radius of the circular base of the cylinder and h is the height of the cylinder. You are given a slant length and radius of 26 and 10 units. You can get the height by using pythagorean theorem c²=a²+b².

c²=a²+b²
26² = 10² + b²
b = 24

V = \pir²h
V = \pi(10)²(24)
V = 7,540 units³
