Given:

The length of the hypotenuse side is 28.

The length of the opposite side is 24.

To find the length of the adjacent side:

Let x be the length of the adjacent side

Using the Pythagoras theorem,

[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{hyp}^2=\text{opp}^2+\text{adj}^2 \\ 28^2=24^2+x^2 \\ 784=576+x^2 \\ x^2=784-576 \\ x^2=208 \\ x=\sqrt[]{208} \\ \approx14.4 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Hence, the answer is 14.4.
