The lengths of the missing sides in the triangle is x = 9.89 units & y = 7 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given figure, it's a right angled triangle with sides as :

Perpendicular = 7 units

Base = y units

Hypotenuse = x units

Here, Tan\alpha  =\frac{Perpencdicular}{Base} and , Tan45° = 1

⇒ Tan\alpha  =\frac{Perpencdicular}{Base}

⇒ Tan45  = \frac{7}{y}

1 = \frac{7}{y}

y = 7

Now, by Pythagoras Theorem :

Hypotenuse^{2} = Perpendicular^{2} + Base^{2}

x^{2} = y^{2} + 7^{2}

x^{2} = y^{2} + 7^{2}

x^{2} = 7^{2} +7^{2}

x^{2} = 49 + 49 = 98

x = 7\sqrt{2}  = 9.89 units

The lengths of the missing sides in the triangle is x = 9.89 units & y = 7 units.
