Answer:

x = 24

Explanation:

Since this is a right angle, we can use the Pythagorean Theorem to find x. In the formula, a^2 + b^2 = c^2, variables a and b represent the lengths of the legs, and variable c represents the length of the hypotenuse.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

18^2 + x^2 = 30^2

324 + x^2 = 900

x^2 = 576

x = 24
