h^=b^+a^
25*25=24*24+a^
625=576+a^
a^=625-576=49
a^=49
a=root 49=7cm
side=7cm
hope it helps

Here is the solution :
Pythagorean Theorem : In a Right angled Triangle, The sum of squares of non-Hypotenuse sides is equal to Hypotenuse squared,
Now,
Let the sides be a,b,c
From the Question,
Let a = one of the side = 24 cm,
Let c = Hypotenuse = 25cm,
Let b = Other side,
Now,
Applying Pythagorean theorem,
=> 25² = 24² + b²,
=> 625 = 576 + b²
=> 625 - 576 = 49 = b²
=> b² = 49,
=> b = +7 or -7,
But Side can't be negative,
So,
Therefore : The length of the other side is +7 cm,
Hope you understand, Have a great day !
