    It is C, 4 root 2

    If you already have the hypotenuse you can use the equation A^2 - B^2 = C^2

    So 36-4 = 32

    Square root of 32 is 4 root 2 if simplifying through Surds.

    The other leg is 24 ft.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    49+x2=625. x2=576. x=±24→ Eliminate the - 24 answer choice; a side length cannot be negative.
