Answer:

x=2√2 units

Explanation:

In the right triangle:

• The side length ,opposite, 45° = x

,

• The length of the ,hypotenuse, = 4

From trigonometric ratios:


\begin{gathered} \sin\theta=(Opposite)/(Hypotenuse) \\ \implies\sin45\degree=(x)/(4) \end{gathered}

Cross multiply:


\begin{gathered} x=4*\sin45\degree \\ x=4*(√(2))/(2) \\ x=2√(2) \end{gathered}

The value of x is 2√2 units.
