Answer:


e = 13√(2)


f = 13√(2)

Explanation:

The ∆ given is an isosceles ∆ with a right angle measuring 90°, and two congruent angles measuring 45° each.

Using trigonometric ratio formula, we can find the lengths of the missing side as shown below:

Finding e:


sin(\theta) = (opp)/(hyp)


sin(\theta) = sin(45) = (√(2))/(2)

hyp = 26

opp = e = ?

Plug in the values into the formula


(√(2))/(2) = (e)/(26)

Multiply both sides by 26


(√(2))/(2)*26 = (e)/(26)*26


(√(2))/(2)*26 = e


(√(2))/(1)*13 = e


13√(2) = e


e = 13√(2)

Since side e is of the same length with side f, therefore, the length of side f =
13√(2)
