Answer:

9

Explanation:

so to find x you have to use the tan ratio because x is the opposite of the angle at the top and you are given which is 9

tan45=opposite/adjacent

tan45=x/9

x=tan45×9

=9

I hope this helps

Answer:

x=9

y=9sqrt2

Explanation:

Since it is a 45 45 90 triangle, the two side lengths are the same

But the hypoteneuse is always the side length time sqrt 2
