Answer:

x = 7[tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex] and y = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is 45 45 90 triangle, each leg is the same length so y = 7 too and x is always [tex]a\sqrt{2}[/tex]  so x = 7[tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex]

The values of [tex]x[/tex] and [tex]y[/tex] are required.

The required values are

[tex]x=9.9\ \text{units}[/tex]

[tex]y=7\ \text{units}[/tex]

The given triangle is a right angled triangle.

Two given angles are [tex]90^{\circ}[/tex] and [tex]45^{\circ}[/tex]

The sum of the angles is [tex]180^{\circ}[/tex]

The missing angle is

[tex]180-(90+45)=45^{\circ}[/tex]

Since, the two angles are equal the side opposite the angles will also be equal.

So,

[tex]y=7[/tex]

Applying the Pythagoras theorem.

[tex]7^2+7^2=x^2\\\Rightarrow x=\sqrt{7^2+7^2}\\\Rightarrow x\approx 9.9[/tex]
