The sentence contains a dangling modifier.
As it is written the modifier "considering the candidates" seems to be describing "one." However, one is not doing the considering; instead, "one" is a candidate.
A better revision might be "Considering the candidates, I feel one stands out as the best choice." In this way, the person doing the considering is made clear.

Answer:
The foundation may be a rectangle: 24 squared + 32 squared = 40 squared.
Explanation:
A rectangle is a quadrilateral (that is it has four sides). The opposite sides of a rectangle are parallel to each other. Also the opposite sides are equal to each other. The four angles of a rectangle are equal to each other and measure 90° each.
The diagonals of a rectangle bisect each other. The relationship between the length, width and diagonal of a rectangle is given by:
Diagonal² = length² + width²
Given that length = 24 feet, width = 32 feet, diagonal = 40 feet, we prove that it is rectangle using:
Diagonal² = 24² + 32²
Diagonal² = 1600
Diagonal² = 40²
Hence: 40² = 24² + 32²
