26.

Step-by-step explanation:

To figure out the missing side of a right triangle, we will use the Pythagorean theorem. This is...

[tex]a^2+b^2=c^2[/tex]

With this Pythagorean theorem, a and b will always be the legs and the c will always be the hypotenuse, no matter what. Now knowing this, we can plug the legs into the equation.

[tex]10^2+24^2=c^2[/tex]

[tex]100+576=c^2[/tex]

Add the legs together.

[tex]676=c^2[/tex]

Now, since c is squared we will have to find the square root of 676.

[tex]\sqrt{676}[/tex]

= 26
