Using this as a reference would be very helpful.

Luigi0210 · Answer

The first one for example, it is a 45-45-90 triangle, meaning that the sides would be the same. The hypotenuse would be multiplied by $\sqrt{2} $ however

Luigi0210 · Answer

Soo the first one, to find x, it would be

$\large (8\sqrt{2})*\sqrt{2} =(8*2)=?$

Subshilava · Answer

16?

Luigi0210 · Answer

yess

Luigi0210 · Answer

And for the 30-60, they gave you the side as 6, to find the hypotenuse, just multiply that by 2

So, $\large 2*(6) $

Subshilava · Answer

12?

Luigi0210 · Answer

You just gotta follow the measurements for 30-60-90 and 45-45-90 triangles

1 Ok so how would I set up the one squared I know the other one 60*16

Subshilava · Answer

Well it wouldn’t be 60*16

You're right, it wouldn't be. You're given the hypotenuse instead, so you have to do a little backwards work. You have it as $\color{red}{7\sqrt{2}}$ If you look at the reference, the general measurement is $\color{yellow}{x\sqrt{2}} $ To get just "x" you would have to divide: $$\Large \frac{x\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{2}} = \frac{7\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt2}$$ Giving you: $$\Large x=7$$ So your x in this case is 7

So why do they add other numbers of the angle? Instead of just the one you need?

Luigi0210 · Answer

The angles are just so you know which triangle you are dealing with, different triangles have different measurements

Subshilava · Answer

So for the last one 8 squared 3

You actually got the right answer, but for the wrong side. If you lined it up with the referenced, you would see you just had to divide by 2 to get x. So it was just 8

Oh okay tysm for helping me

Luigi0210 · Answer

Of course, good luck with mathh
