let other side be x
25^2=7^2+x^2
x^2=625-49
x^2=579
x=24
therefore other side of right triangle is 24 cm
25^2=7^2+x^2
x^2=625-49
x^2=579
x=24
therefore other side of right triangle is 24 cm

Let the other side be x
By Pythagoras theorem,
(25)^2= (7)^2+(x)^2
625= 49+ x^2
625-49= x^2
576= x^2
root of 576= x
Therefore x= 24.
