Question

What is the value of x?
24​

Answer 1

Explanation:

We are given a right angled triangle, in which lengths of perpendicular sides are 24 and 7 units. We are required to find the length of hypotenuse which is marked as x.

Therefore, by Pythagoras theorem:

`x = \sqrt{ {24}^(2) + {7}^(2) } \\ = √(576 + 49) \\ = √(625) \\ = 25`
