Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagorean Theorem states that $a^{2} +b^{2} =c^{2}$ where a and b are the legs in a right triangle and c is the hypotenuse. Therefore, just substitute the values a = 10 and c = 26 into the equation to get b = 24

Hope this helps :)

Leto [7]

Answer:

0.3276%

Step-by-step explanation:

-The percentage of error is the the percentage deviation from the real value.

-Given the real value is 427.4 m and the pedometer value is 426m, the % of error is calculated:

$e={Actual -Reading}\\\\=427.4-426\\\\=1.4\\\\\therefore\% e=\frac{e}{Actual}\times 100\%\\\\=\frac{1.4}{427.4}\times 100\%\\\\=0.3276\%$

Hence, the percentage of error is 0.3276%
