The Pythagorean theorem to solve for c or the hypotenuse do √a^2+b^2.
So c= √7^2+24^2

√49+576= √625=25
25 is your answer for c.
*Remember the hypotenuse is the longest side so when solving for the hypotenuse it’ll be longest side*

Answer:

25

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the missing side (in this case, the longest one/hypotenuse), we can use the equation a^2 + b^2 = c^2. By substituting out the variables, we get 7^2 + 24^2 = c^2; this can be simplified to 49 + 576 = c^2. Add, and then we know that 625 = c^2. If c squared is 625, we need to find the square root of 625, which is 25.
