Instructions: Find the missing side of the triangle.<br> 24 and 7

ANTONII [103]

We can use the Pythagorean theorem to solve this. The Pythagorean theorem is a^2 + b^2 = c^2. We already have a and b, we need to find c. 24^2 + 7^2 is 625. Then, we need to find the square root of 625 to find c. The answer is 25. x = 25.
