X=8 remember length cannot be negative

Let the length of unknown side be x

So, hypotenuse = 2x + 1

By pythagorean theorem ie , a² = b² + c²

(2x + 1)² = x² + 15²

4x² + 1 + 4x = x² + 225

3x² + 4x -224

(3x +28)(x-8)

x = -9.33 , 8

Since, length can't be negative

x = 8

∴Unknown side length = 8 m

Length of hypotenuse = 2 x 8 + 1 = 17 m

Hope it helps now.
