Answer:

s = 10

Explanation:

This Triangle is a Right Triangle with two equal sides ( because there are two equal angles )

Pytha. Theorem

A² + B² = C²

since we have two equal sides the A = B = s

then

s² + s² = c²

2s² = c²

2s² = (10sqrt2)²

2s² = 100 x 2

2s² = 200

s² = 200/2 = 100

s = sqrt ( 100 )

s = 10
