C. Ned's speed between the interval from 20 to 40 minutes is the same as his speed over the interval 50 to 90 minutes.
D. Ned's speed over the interval from 20 to 40 minutes is faster than his speed over the interval from 0 to 20 minutes.

Because this is a right angle triangle, we can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the missing leg.
The Pythagorean theorem is this:
The Pythagorean theorem tells us if you square both the legs then add them up together, you will get the length of the hypotenuse squared.
We know one leg is 24 and the hypotenuse is 26. Plug them into the equation.
24^2 + b^2 = 26^2
Solve for b.
24^2 + b^2 = 26^2
576 + b^2 = 26^2
576 + b^2 = 676
b^2 = 100
Take the square root of both sides.
b = 10
So, the other leg of the triangle is 10 units long.
