Answer:

  17) x = 10√2

  18) x = 4√6

Step-by-step explanation:

These problems rely on your knowledge of the side ratios of special triangles

  45°-45°-90° triangle: 1 : 1 : √2

  30°-60°-90° triangle: 1 : √3 : 2

__

17) 5 is the short side of the isosceles right triangle, so its hypotenuse is 5√2. That length is the shortest side of the 30/60/90 triangle, so its longest side is 2 times that:

  x = 10√2

__

18) 8 is the longest side of the 30/60/90 triangle, so its long leg will be 8(√3)/2 = 4√3. The hypotenuse of the isosceles right triangle is √2 times that, so ...

  x = (4√3)(√2)

  x = 4√6
