The triangle below is isosceles. Find the length of side x in simplest radical form with a rational denominator.

Solution given:
it is a right angled isosceles triangle
so
perpendicular [p]=base[b]=5
hypotenuse [h]=x
we have
by using Pythagoras law
p²+b²=h²
5²+5²=h²
50=h²
h=[tex]\sqrt{50}[/tex]
x=[tex]\bold{5\sqrt{2}}[/tex]
