Answer:

B

Explanation:

It's a right triangle, so the pythagorean theorem will be used a lot.

First, find the side length on the left.

25^2 = 7^2 + y

y = 24

Now, knowing that 7 - 3 = 4 (the smaller side length), I can use this theorem again to find x.

4^2 + 24^2 = x^2

x =
√(592)

Just need to simplify it a little farther...

592 / 16 = 37, so B must be the answer.
