There is one side that must be half as long as the hypotenuse. The length of that side is 12. That is the side opposite the 30 degree angle. The other side has a length of
sqrt[(24)^2 - (12)^2] = 20.78
The nearest whole number is 21.
You have not indicated which side is x.
How do you do this, I keep on getting 3..
