    100/240/260 will be the combination.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    In a right angle triangle JKL,

    ∠JKL = 90° and side JL is the hypotenuse of the triangle.

    By Pythagoras theorem,

    JK² + KL² = JL²

    Since JL = 260

    Therefore, (JK) ² + (KL) ² = (260) ² = 67600

    In the given options, square of two numbers total becomes 67600.

    And the possible numbers will be 100 and 240.

    (100) ² + (240) ² = 10000 + 57600 = 67600

    Since side JK > side KL

    Therefore, measure of JK = 240 cm, KL = 100 cm and JL = 240 cm could be the combination among all values.
