ANSWER:

The value of x is 25

Explanation:

We can calculate the value of x by means of the Pythagorean theorem that says the following:


\begin{gathered} h^2=a^2+b^2 \\ h=x \\ a=7 \\ b=24 \end{gathered}

replacing:


\begin{gathered} x^2=7^2+24^2 \\ x^2=49+576 \\ x=\sqrt[]{625} \\ x=25 \end{gathered}
