Answer:

x =
11√(2)

y =
11√(2)

Explanation:

the ratio of the sides of a 45 - 45 - 90 triangle is shown at the bottom of this answer.

as you can see, it is x:x:
x√(2)

The side given is x
√(2), so you have:


x√(2)=22

divide both sides by
√(2)

x =
22/√(2)

multiply this by
√(2) /√(2)


x = 22√(2)/2


x=11√(2)

y is also equal so y =
11√(2)
