The perimeter of a right triangle with the two longer sides of lengths 24cm and 26cm

Perimeter = 60 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter = a + b + c

c = 26 cm

b = 24 cm

a = ?

Recall pythagorean theorem to solve for a

c² = a² + b²

26² = a² + 24²

676 = a² + 576

a² = 676 - 576

a² = 100

a = √100

a = 10 cm

Perimeter = 10 + 24 + 26

= 60 cm

what should we have to find here?

the perimeter is 74cm
