Q:
There is a picture of a right triangle, the hypotenuse is the value 5, the adjacent is the value y, and the opposite is the value x. The right angle is of course the value of 90 degrees, the other two angles are the values 45 and 45 degrees. How do I find the exact values of x and y without using SOHCAHTOA?
