We know that
A right isosceles triangle <span> has two equal sides and two equal angles
so 
has two angles equals to 45</span>°

<span>methodology 1 to solve the problem
</span>Let 
x--------> length of the leg of triangle
sin 45°=opposite side/hypotenuse
sin 45°=√2/2
opposite side=hypotenuse*sin 45°------> 31*√2/2---> 21.92 units


methodology 2 to solve the problem
c²=a²+b²
c=hypotenuse------> 31 units
a=leg 1
b=leg 2
a=b
so
c²=2a²------> a²=c²/2------> a²=(31)²/2
a=√[(31)²/2]------> a=31/√2-----> 31√2/2------> 21.92 units

kogti [31]

Answer:

68.3 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, we can use trig functions

tan I = opp side / adj side

tan I = sqrt(82) / sqrt(13)

tan I = sqrt(82/13)

Taking the inverse tan of each side

tan ^-1 ( tan I) = tan ^-1( sqrt(82/13))

I = 68.2892

Rounding to the nearest tenth

I = 68.3 degrees
