To solve this problem, you can use the Pythagorean theorem which states that in a right triangle, the square of the hypotenuse (the longest side) is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.

In this case, we have:

x^2 = 42^2 + 32^2

Simplifying, we get:

x^2 = 1764 + 1024

x^2 = 2788

Taking the square root of both sides, we get:

x ≈ 52.76

However, the question asks for the answer to the nearest tenth. Therefore, rounding the answer to the nearest tenth, we get:

x ≈ 40.4
