Question

Using the triangle 45o -45o -90o theorem solve this triangle. please​

Answer 1

k = 24·√2

Explanation:

Given that the angles of the triangle are 45° by 45 by 90°, we have;

The given right triangle = An isosceles right triangle by two angles being equal

The given angle of the right triangle = 90°

The given leg of the right triangle = 24

For an isosceles right triangle, both legs are equal, therefore;

The length of the other leg of the right triangle = 24

By Pythagoras theorem, the measure of the side opposite the 90° side, 'k', is given as follows;

k² = (One leg length)² + (The other leg length)²

∴ k² = 24² + 24² = 1152

k = √1152 = 24·√2 ≈ 33.94.
