<h3>As we know that sum of three angles of triangle is 180º.</h3>

\blue\starwe have

angle \: a + angle \: b+ angle \: c= 180 \\

a + 45 + 90 = 180 \\ a = 180 - 135 \\ a = 45

<h3>\blue\star The angles a and c are equal so,</h3>
  • cb = ab. [ sides opp to equal angles are equal]

so x is also 16

<h3>\blue\starNow we have two side we can easily find the third side by P.G.T</h3>
  • {AC}^{2} = {BC}^{2} + {AB}^{2}
  • {AC}^{2} = {16}^{2} + {16}^{2}
  • {AC}= \sqrt{512}

<h3>so the r is root 512 and x is 16.</h3>

Hope it helpa
