Concept:
The given triangle in the question is a 45°-45°-90° triangle.
It is considered to be a special triangle where the ratio of side lengths is 1:1:√2, meaning that the legs that correspond with 45° are 1, while the hypotenuse which corresponds with 90° is √2.
Please refer to the attachment below for a graphical explanation.
Given:
A 45°-45°-90° triangle
Leg₁: 15
Solve:
Knowing that the ratio of the triangle is 1 : 1 : √2
<u>Find the value of x</u>
x leg correspond with 45° angle
Leg₁ correspond with 45° angle
Leg₁ = 15
∵ The given ratio is 1 : 1 for 45° angle
<u>Find the value of y</u>
y hypotenuse correspond with 90° angle
Leg₁ correspond with 45° angle
Leg₁ = 15
∵ The given ratio is 1 : √2 for 45° : 90° angle
Hope this helps!! :)
