In every right triangle, if you add up the squares of the two
shorter sides, you get the square of the longest side. If you
don't then it's not a right triangle.
10² = 100
24² = 576
100 + 576 = 676
676 is the square of 26.
It's NOT the square of 28.
So 10 - 24 - 28 is not a right triangle.

Answer:
Gallons of water remaining = 16,962 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
Total capacity of the pool = 17,897 gallons
Rate of leakage per day = 5 gallons
Number of days = 187 days
how many gallons of water will remain in the pool after 187 days?
Gallons of water remaining = Total capacity of the pool - (Rate of leakage per day × Number of days
= 17,897 - (5 × 187)
= 17,897 - 935
= 16,962 gallons
Gallons of water remaining = 16,962 gallons
