    The length of the other short side would also be 8 because in a 45-45-90 triangle both the short sides are equal to each other. In Trig a standard 45-45-90 triangle has both the short sides as 1 and the hypotenuse as square root of 2

    In a (plane) triangle, if two angles are congruent, then the sides opposite those angles are congruent

    what is the length opposite the other 45º angle ??

    You really do have to think !

    [ 8 units ]

    the hypotenuse is: 8√2 units

    8

    It is iaisoceles triangle if there are two equal angles and therefore the two shortest sides are also equal.
