The legs are 5 inches long.

Use the Pythagorean theorem:
5^2+5^2=c^2 \\
25+25=c^2 \\
50=c^2 \\
c=\sqrt{50} \\
c=\sqrt{25 \times 2} \\
c=5 \sqrt{2} \\
c \approx 7

The length of the hypotenuse of the triangle is approximately 7 inches long.

a^{2} + b^{2} = c^{2}  \\  5^{2} + 5^{2} = c^{2}  \\  25 + 25 = c^{2}  \\ 50= c^{2}  \\  \sqrt{50}= c \\ c=7.07
c ≈ 7

The hypotenuse is about 7 inches long.

Answer:

x = 62

Step-by-step explanation:

If the triangle has two values that are the same like your 6s that means that they have the same angle, so you take the angle(56 degrees)  and subtract 180 and 56 making 124. You take 124 and divide it by 2. Making x =62.
