Question

Solve for x and y please !!

Answer 1

isosceles triangle
y = 72 yd

x^2 = 72^2 + 72^2
x^2 = 2(72^2)
x = 72√2 yd

Answer 2

since both inside angles are 45, the height and the base would be the same

the height is 72 yd

so the base (y) would also be 72 yd

Y = 72

and x would equal y * sqrt(2)

so x = 72sqrt(2)
