Caleb, the longest side of a right triangle is the hypotenuse.
x2 + (x + 5)2 = 252
x2 + x2 + 10x + 25 = 625
2x2 + 10x + 25 = 625
2x2 + 10x - 600 = 0
(2x + 40)(x - 15) = 0
2x + 40 = 0
2x = -40
x = -20
Since distance can't be negative, this answer is out.
x - 15 = 0
x = 15
Let's check.
152 + 202 = 252
225 + 400 = 625
625 = 625.
Check.
