\sin 30^(\circ) = (LJ)/(8\sqrt 2)\\\\\implies LJ = 8\sqrt 2 \sin 30^(\circ) =8\sqrt 2 \cdot \frac 12 = 4\sqrt 2\\\\ \text{Now,}\\\sin 45^(\circ) = (LM)/(LJ) \\\\\implies LM = \sin 45^(\circ) LJ\\\\\implies x = \frac 1{\sqrt 2} \cdot 4\sqrt 2 = 4 ~~ units.

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:


\sf sin(x)= (opposite)/(hypotensue)

Solve for LJ:


\hookrightarrow \sf sin(30) = (LJ)/(8√(2) )


\hookrightarrow \sf sin(30)*8√(2) ={LJ}


\hookrightarrow \sf {LJ} = 4√(2)

Solve for LM:


\hookrightarrow \sf \sf sin(45)= (LM)/(4√(2) )


\hookrightarrow \sf \sf sin(45)*4√(2) = {LM}


\hookrightarrow \sf {LM} = 4
