Answer:

D

Explanation:

This triangle is a 45-45-90 triangle, which is a special triangle! Ooh! That means we already know that the ratio of its sides is
x√(2), x, and x, with the legs = x and the hypotenuse =
x√(2).

We have the hypotenuse as 8, so plug it in:

8 =
x√(2)

8/
√(2\\) = x

Multiply both the top and bottom of that fraction by
√(2\\) to get

8
√(2\\) /
√(2\\)
√(2\\) =

8
√(2\\) / 2 = 4
√(2\\)

x = 4
√(2\\), so v and u = 4
√(2\\)!
