Answer:

13.3 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Apply the Pythagorean Theorem:

hyp² = (2nd longest side)² + (shortest side)².  Here the numbers are:

(24 cm)² = (20 cm)² + (shortest side)², or

576 - 400 = 176 = hyp²

Taking the square root of both sides, we get (shortest side) = 13.3 cm

Answer:

B. 6,8,10

Step-by-step explanation:

to find a right triangle the equation: a^2 + b^2 = c^2, so just plug each number in to see.

6^2 + 8^2 = !0^2

36 + 64 = 100

100 = 100

Personally i knew almost immediately because 3,4,5 are the most common right triangles example and 6,8,10 are just a x2 of them so yea.
