A² + b² = c²
Where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse
So, plug in 10 for one of the legs and 24 for the other leg
c will be left blank because that is what you are trying to find, the hypotenuse
10² + 24² = c²
100 + 576 = c²
676 = c²
Take the square root of both sides of the equation to isolate c
√676 = √c²
Square of c and the square root cross out on the right
Take the square root of 676
c = 26
So, the length of the hypotenuse is 26 centimeters
Juan is in the middle
<u>Explanation:</u>
Given:
Five students in total
_ _ _ _ _
Juan is not the shortest. So, Juan can be in 2nd, 3rd, 4th or 5th position.
_ J J J J
Tad is the tallest and not standing next to Juan, So,
_ J J _ T
Caroline is next to Tad. So,
_ J J C T
Juan is not standing next to Pamela. So,
P _ J C T
Marco is taller than Pamela. So,
P M J C T
The height is arranged in increasing order from Pamela to Tad.
Thus, from the series we can see that Juan is in the middle.
