This is a 45-45-90 triangle and the ratios of the sides are 1 : 1 : sqrt2 where sqrt2 is the length of the hypotenuse ( longest side)
So the measure of x = 12 sqrt2 which is the first choice.
If ZM is an obtuse angle (greater than 90), then ZM and ZP will not add up to 90.
If ZP is 120, then ZM and ZP will not add up to 90.
There are multiple contradicting statements within this problem, as noted above.
Hope this helps!
