Answer:
Below in bold.
Step-by-step explanation:
The longest side is calculated using Pythagoras:
x^2 = 10^2 + 24^2 = 676
x = √676 = 26 inches.
So Hank needs 10+24+26 = 60 inches of tape.
Answer:
60

Step-by-step explanation:
okay, so we know that 2 sides of the triangle measure 24 in. and 10 in. if I got the info correct, kind of hard to read and understand it. We can use the Pythagorean theorem to solve this. The Pythagorean theorem is [tex]a^{2} +b^{2} = c^{2}[/tex].
now, we put in 24 and 10 for a and b.
We try to figure out what c is.
[tex]24^{2} + 10^{2} = c^{2}[/tex]
= 576 + 100 = [tex]c^{2}[/tex]
= 676 = [tex]c^{2}[/tex]
Now we need to square root both sides to find the amount of c.
= [tex]\sqrt{676} = c[/tex]
The square root of 676 is 26!
Now, you just need to add 24 + 26 + 10 = 60!
