Answer:

x = 6

Explanation:

this is a 45-45-90 triangle where the leg to hypotenuse ratio is always 1 :
√(2)

so if a leg equals two then the hypotenuse is 2
√(2)

in this case, x = 6
√(2) ÷
√(2) which is 6

Answer:

See below.

Explanation:

Remember SOHCAHTOA.

Soh... Sine = Opposite / Hypotenuse

...cah... Cosine = Adjacent / Hypotenuse

...toa Tangent = Opposite / Adjacent

In this case, we’ll use CAH.

cos(45) = x/6
√(2)

x = cos(45) * 6
√(2)

x = 6
