Ok, here we have a right triangle so, we can use trigonometric ratios, in this case we could use the sine or the cosine since we know all the angles and a leg, and we need to find the hypotenuse. We choose to use the sine:


\sin (45)=\frac{\sqrt[]{3}}{x}
\frac{\sqrt[]{2}}{2}=\frac{\sqrt[]{3}}{x}

So, we are going to clear x:


x=\frac{\sqrt[]{3}\cdot2}{\sqrt[]{2}}=\sqrt[]{6}
