Explanation:

Since this is a right triangle and we are given an angle measure that measure 45, the other angle measure also measure 45.

So this means we are dealing with a 45-45-90 triangle.

A 45-45-90 triangle legs are equal to each other and the hypotenuse measures sqr root of 2 times more than the legs.

The hypotenuse measure 2 times sqr root of 14 so divide by sqr root of 2 to find x and y.


(2 √(14) )/(1) * (1)/( √(2 ) ) = ( √(56) )/( √(2) ) = √(28) = 2 √(7)

Since x and y are equal, they both measure


2 √(7)
