^ very very wrong do NOT ever assume they are congruent. Congruent triangles are always similar, but similar triangles are NOT ALWAYS congruent.

similar triangles are triangles that have proportioned sides and congruent angles.

bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

$y=2\sqrt{3}\ units$

Step-by-step explanation:

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

we know that

In the right triangle ABC

$AC=BC$ -----> by a 45°-90°-45° triangle

$cos(45\°)=\frac{BC}{AB}$

$BC=ABcos(45\°)$

substitute the values

$BC=(2\sqrt{2})(\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2})=2\ units$

In the right triangle BCD

$tan(60\°)=\frac{BD}{BC}$

substitute the values

$\sqrt{3} =\frac{y}{2}\\ \\ y=2\sqrt{3}\ units$
