Answer:

25

Explanation:

1) So "x" is the measurement of the longest side in a right angle triangle. The longest side is called the hypotenuse

there is actually a formula to find the measurement of the hypotenuse called the pythagorean theorem

so

a^2+b^2=c^2

where a=measurement of one side

b=measurement of other

and c=hypotenuse

hence,

24^2+7^2=x^2

576+49=x^2

625=x^2

to find value of x by itself take square root on both sides:

25=x

Hope this helps!
