Answer:
f = 13[tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that f and e are congruent then e = f
Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle
f² + e² = 26² , that is
f² + f² = 676
2f² = 676 ( divide both sides by 2 )
f² = 338 ( take the square root of both sides )
f = [tex]\sqrt{338}[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{169(2)}[/tex] = 13[tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex] ≈ 18.4 ( to 1 dec. place )
