Answer:

x = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagorean Theorem: a² + b² = c²

<em>a</em> = a leg

<em>b</em> = another leg

<em>c</em> = hypotenuse

Step 1: Plug in known variables

x² + 10² = 26²

Step 2: Evaluate

x² + 100 = 676

Step 3: Isolate <em>x </em>term

x² = 576

Step 4: Isolate <em>x</em>

√x² = √576

x = 24

Answer:

x=24

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, we can use the Pythagorean Theorem.

The Pythagorean Theorem is:

a^2+b^2=c^2

The hypotenuse is c, and the legs are a and b.

Plug in 26 for c since 26 is the hypotenuse, and let 10 for a and x be b. Therefore:

x^2+10^2=26^2

Square:

x^2+100=676

Subtract 100 from both sides:

x^2=576

Take the square root of both sides:

\sqrt{x^2}=\sqrt{576}\\x=\sqrt{576}=24

The answer is 24.
