Hi there!
For any 45 45 90 right triangle, the length of the hypotenuse is always the square root of 2 times one of the legs.
To get the lengths of the leg, let's divide the length of the hypotenuse by the square root of 2.
We get the following:
When simplifying fractions like this, we want to avoid having radicals on the bottom. In order to remove the radical from the denominator, let's multiply the numerator and the denominator by the square root of 2.
We get the following:
That's your answer.
Have an awesome day! :)

Congruent triangle are the same shape and same size exactly
Answer:
The answer to your question is 14° and 76°
Step-by-step explanation:
Data
leg 1 = x
leg 2 = x/4
angle 1 = ?
angle 2 = ?
Process
To solve problem use trigonometric functions. We must use the trigonometric function that relates both legs (tangent).
tangent Ф = Opposite side / Adjacent side
-Substitution
tan Ф = (x/4) / x
-Simplification
tan Ф = x / 4x
tan Ф = 1/4
- Find Ф
Ф = tan⁻¹(1/4) = 14°
- Find the other acute angle
The sum of the internal angles in a triangles equals 180°
Ф + Ф₁ + 90° = 180
-Solve for Ф₁
Ф₁ = 180 - 90 - 14
-Result
Ф₁ = 76°
Answer:
90 degree rotation in the clockwise direction.
Step-by-step explanation:
Point A transforms to A'
- that is x coordinate: 2 ---> 3
and y coordinate 3 ---> -2
So the rotation is clockwise from Quadrant1 to Quadrant 4.
The slope of OA = 3/2 and the slope of OA' = -2/3.
The product of these slopes = 3/2 * -2/3 = -1 so the lines are perpendicular - that is the line has passed through an angle of 90 degrees.
A similar result occurs if we consider points B, C and D.
To find the total of 3/4 and 4/5 is to add them together. However, in order to add them together you need to find the least common denominator (LCD). And the LCD of both denominators would be 20, because that is the smallest number both 4 and 5 can divide into. And here is the tricky part, now you have to change the numerators. So since 3/4th's now has a denominator of 20 you have to make the 3 match the 20. So 4 times what it 20? It is 5. So now multiply 5 by three and that will give you 15/20, which can reduce to 3/4 which means that you did this correctly! Now repeat the same steps with 4/5:
4/5=4/20
20÷5=4
4•4=16
16/20 (16/20 can reduce to 4/5 which means you did this correctly.
Now to add them keep the denominators the same and only add the numerators:
15/20 + 16/20 = 31/20
Now this as a mixed number would be 1 11/20. I hope this was helpful!
