Answer:
x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
I think there may be other ways to do this ... but this is one I guess....
one angle= 90 ( given)
the other = 45 (given)
the third = 90 + 45 + a = 180
(all angles of triangles is 180 [angle sum property])
a = 180 - 135
= 45
The base angles are equal so that means it is a isoscles triangle. In isoscles triangle, two sides are equal , so
if one side is 7
the x is 7 too
(as it cant be the hypothenus)
I think this is right
Im pretty sure it would be doubling the length of each side

Answer:
cos(x) = 0.6
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we need to find UQ.
UQ = UP·cos(y°) = UP·√(1 -sin²(y°)) = (26 cm)√(1 -25/169) = (26 cm)(12/13)
UQ = 24 cm
Then TQ is ...
TQ = 1/3UQ = 1/3(24 cm) = 8 cm
And cos(x°) is ...
cos(x°) = √(1 -sin²(x)) = √(1 -64/100)
cos(x°) = 6/10 = 3/5
cos(x°) = 3/5 = 0.6
