A triangle has sides of lengths 10, 24, and 26. Is it a right triangle? Explain.

Komok [63]

The most efficient way of finding the answer to this question is first reducing 10-24-26 and comparing it with the first 5 combinations for right-angled triangles:

First, reduce 10-24-26 by dividing it by the GCF (greatest common factor).

10-24-26 divided by its GCF, 2, is: 5-12-13

Now comparing it with the first 5 combinations for right-angled triangles:

1) 3-4-5
2) 5-12-13
3) 7-24-25
4) 8-15-17
5) 20-21-29

As you can see, number 2 is the same as our reduced example. Therefore, we know that 10-24-26 is a right triangle.

Hope this helps!

24 boys started a cycle racc and 18 of them

soldier1979 [14.2K]

75% ended the race
25-18=6
6 goes into 24 4 times so it is 25% that did not finish
100%-25%=75%
So 75% finished the race
