Answer:
28 in.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let,
The unknown leg be = x
According to Pythagoras Theorem,
[tex] {hypotenuse}^{2} - {base}^{2} = {height}^{2} [/tex]
[tex] = > {100}^{2} - {96}^{2} = {x}^{2} [/tex]
[tex] = > {x}^{2} = 10000 - 9216[/tex]
[tex] = > {x}^{2} = 784[/tex]
[tex] = > x = \sqrt{784} [/tex]
=> x = 28
Hence,
the another leg is 28 in. (Ans)
