Question

Helppp!!! What is the value of y?

Answer 1

Answer:

y=2√3, or 3.46410161513

Step-by-step explanation:

The smaller triangle is a right isosceles triangle, so the other side is also √2. To figure out it’s hypotenuse, you can use the Pythagorean theorem.

√2²+√2²=c²

2+2=c²

4=c²

√4=c

c=2

Now that we know that value, we can look at the bigger triangle.  It is a 30-60-90 triangle, which has special properties.

Y would equal the two of the base times the square root of three.

y=2√3, or 3.46410161513
