Answer:

5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

Given data

Le the first number be x

and the second number be y

So

x*y= 10-----------------1

and

x+y= 7-----------------2

from eqn 1

x= 10/y

put x= 10/y in eqn 2

10/y+y= 7\\\\10/y= 7-y

cross multiply we have

10=y(7-y)\\\\10=7y-y^2

rearrange

y^2-7y+10=0

the factors of the quadratic expression are

-5 and -2

y^2-5y-2y+10= 0\\\\y(y-5)-2(y-5) =0\\\\y-2=0\\\\y= 2\\\\y-5= 0\\\\y=5\\\\

The longest side is 5 units

Remember, you take 1/2 of b and square it to get c

c=100
(b/2)^2=c
(b/2)^2=100
sqrt oth sides
b/2=+/-10
times both sides by 2
b=+/-20
it is 20 or -20
