IF THE VERTICLE LINE IS ONE OF THE SIDES & IT'S A RIGHT TRIANGLE THEN:
\n" ); document.write( "10^2+24^2=C^2
\n" ); document.write( "100+576=C^2
\n" ); document.write( "C^2=676
\n" ); document.write( "C=SQRT676
\n" ); document.write( "C=26 m.
\n" ); document.write( "iF THE VERTICLE ANGLE IS THE MIDDLE HEIGHT OF THE TRIANGLE THEN:
\n" ); document.write( "5^2+24^2=C^2
\n" ); document.write( "25+576=C^2
\n" ); document.write( "C^2=601
\n" ); document.write( "C=SQRT601
\n" ); document.write( "C=24.5m.
\n" ); document.write( "ALL OTHER VERTICLE LINES WILL RESULT IN THE THIRD SIDE BEING BETWEEN
\n" ); document.write( "24.5M. & 26 m.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
