Step-by-step explanation:
Let another leg be x.
So, 1/2 * 24 * x = 84
Or, x = 84/12 = 7.
And hypotenuse
= (24^2 + 7^2)^1/2
= (476 + 49)^1/2
= (625)^1/2
= 25.

The other two sides are 7 cm and 25 cm. The other two sides are 7cm and 25cm.
That's it..
hope it helps....

Answer:
7cm and 25 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the other leg be p and hypotenuse be q.
Area of triangle=1/2 x b x h
84=1/2 x 24 x p
12p=84
p=7cm.
now, by Pythagoras Theorem,
Leg1² + Leg2²=Hypotenuse²
24²+7²=q²
q²=576+49
q²=625
q=25cm
Hope it will help.
