Answer:

x = y = 10

Explanation:

Using the cosine ratio in the right triangle and the exact value

cos45° =
(1)/(√(2) ) , then

cos45° =
(adjacent)/(hypotenuse) =
(x)/(10√(2) ) =
(1)/(√(2) ) ( cross- multiply )

x ×
√(2) = 10
√(2) ( divide both sides by
√(2) )

x = 10

Since the base angles are 45° then the triangle is isosceles and the 2 legs are congruent, then

x = y = 10
