Question

What is the value of x

Answer 1

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first triangle which is triangle <KJL

Hypotenuse= 8✓2

Angle=30°

Opposite = ?

Therefore we will use Sine formula

Sin30° = Y/8✓2

Y=4✓2

For the second triangle which is triangle <JML

Hypotenuse= 4✓2

Opposite=X

Angle=45°

Therefore we will use Sine formula again

Sin45°=X/4✓2

X=4

Answer 2

Answer:

            x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

ΔJKL is half of equilateral triangle and ΔJML is half of square.

We can use properties of these triangles (picture):

m∠KJL=90° and m∠JKL = 30° ⇒  JL = 0.5KL = 0.5•8√2 = 4√2

m∠JML=90° and m∠MJL = 45° ⇒  JL = ML√2

                                                        4√2 = x√2

                                                             x = 4
