Find the missing length of the triangle.
26 in.
a
24 in.

Work Shown:

Apply the pythagorean theorem to get...

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

a^2 + 24^2 = 26^2

a^2 + 576 = 676

a^2 = 676 - 576

a^2 = 100

a = sqrt(100)

a = 10

option 1 is correct.

step-by-step explanation:

y varies inversely with x and constant of variation is 4

the equation will be:

y = k/x

where k =4 so,

y = 4/x

if we put values of x of option 1 in the above equation and find values of y

y = 4/-2 => y =-2

y = 4/-1 => y = -4

y = 4/1 => y = 4

y = 4/2 => y =2

so, all the values of x and y are correct.

if we put values of x given in other options and find value of y we cannot find whole table satisfying the equation.

hence option 1 is correct.

answer: 20
