Answer 1

It’s seven you use square root plug in and you got your answer

Answer 2

`7`

Explanation:

Use the Pythagorean Theorem

`a^2 + b^2 = c^2`

`a` and
`b` are either opposite or adjacent

`c` is the hypotenuse.

1. Look for the right angle. (the little box). The right angle "points" to the hypotenuse. In this case, the hypotenuse is 25.

2. Because we know the hypotenuse is 25. We know that 24 is our adjacent. Meaning our missing side is the opposite.

3. Plug in the numbers.
`24^2 + b^2 = 25^2`

4. Solve:

`24^2 + b^2 = 25^2`

`576 +b^2=625`

`b^2 = 625-576`

`b^2 = 49`

`√(b^2) = √(49)`

`b = 7`

Hope this helps! Lmk if you have questions.
