Answer:

  b = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle is a right triangle, so the Pythagorean theorem applies.

  a² + b² = c²

  21² + b² = 29² . . . . . . . . . fill in the given values

  b² = 841 -441 = 400 . . . . subtract 21²

  b = √400 = 20 . . . . . . . . take the square root

Side b is 20 units long.
