Find the value of side a . 30 being the hypotenuse, 24 being the adjacent, and a being the opposite of the right triangle

Respuesta :


[tex] {a}^{2} + {24}^{2} = {30}^{2} [/tex]
[tex]{a}^{2} + 576 = 900[/tex]
[tex] {a}^{2} = 900 - 576[/tex]
[tex] {a}^{2} = 324[/tex]
[tex]a = \sqrt{324} [/tex]
[tex]a = 18[/tex]
