    You would have to find the hypotenuse (which is the longest part of the right triangle) To find the hypotenuse you would first do 7 squared + 24 squared=62 then you would find the square root of 62 which is 7.874007874011811 so the answer would be:

    7.874007874011811 feet (you would round it if you need to)
