Question

Instructions: Find the missing side lengths. Leave your answers as radicals in simplest form.

Answer 1

m = n = 20

Explanation:

Here, we want to find the missing side lengths

For a 45-45 triangle, the lengths have a side ratio of;

1:1: √2

We should understand that the triangle is isosceles ( opposite and adjacent are equal)

So n = m

So what we just need to do here is divide 20 √2 by √2

Mathematically, that would be;

20 √2/√2 = 20
