Write an equation you could use to find the length of the missing side of the right triangle. Then find the missing length. Round to the nearest tenth if necessary. Group of answer choices

26+ 24 = a ; 35.4 in.

a + 24 = 26; 10 in.

a + 24 = 26; 2 in.

a + 24 = 26; 100 in.

a² + 24² = 26² ; a = 10 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

a² + 24² = 26² ; a = 10 in.
