SOLUTION:

Case: Triangles

Method:

First, It is an Isosceles triangle

When the base angles are equal, the opposite sides are equal too


x=2√(6)

Next, find y using Pythgoras theorem


\begin{gathered} y^2=(2√(6))^2+(2√(6))^2 \\ y^2=4*6+4*6 \\ y^2=24+24 \\ y^2=48 \\ y=√(48) \\ y=√(16*3) \\ y=4√(3) \end{gathered}

Final answer:


\begin{gathered} x=2√(6) \\ y=4√(3) \end{gathered}
