Question

Solve for x, find the simplified radical & decimal

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 6$\sqrt{2}$ = 8.485

Step-by-step explanation:

In a 45-45-90 triangle, the hypotenuse is $\sqrt{2}$ times the length of a leg.

So, if you are given the hypotenuse, then divide its length by $\sqrt{2}$

x = 12/$\sqrt{2}$ = 12$\sqrt{2}$/2 = 6$\sqrt{2}$ = 8.485
