Answer:
Since the given is a right triangle, to solve for x, apply the Pythagorean formula,
a^2+b^2=c^2
where a and b are the legs of the triangle and c is the hypotenuse.
So, plug-in a=10, b=24 and c=x to the formula.
10^2+24^2=x^2
100+576=x^2
676=x^2
+-sqrt576=sqrt(x^2)
+-26=x
Since x represents the length...
