find the measurement of the side? the image shows a right triangle. both of the angles are 45 degrees and of course 90 degrees since it is a right triangle. the hypotenuse is 44. find the missing side.
a. 22
b. 22√ 2
c. 44
d. 44√ 3
The two angles in the right triangle are 45 degrees each, making it an isosceles right triangle. In an isosceles right triangle, the two legs are congruent, so we can find the missing side by dividing the hypotenuse by √2.
Therefore, the missing side is 44/√2 = 22√2.
The correct answer is b. 22√2.
