Answer:

2√6

Explanation:

find the hypotenuse of the triangle thats 3 and 7

pythagorean

3 squared + 7 squared

16 + 49 = 57

√57 is the hypotenuse

√57 is also the base of the triangle that has side thats 9

pythagorean theorem

x squared + √57 squared = 9 squared

x^2 + 57 = 81

x^2 = 81 - 57

x^2 = 24

x = √24

x = √4 * √6

x = 2√6
