What is the value of y?

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A [tex]45^\circ - 45^\circ - 90^\circ[/tex] triangle is special -- it's a square cut in half diagonally.
The legs (sides that form the 90 degree angle) are both equal.
The hypotenuse is the leg multiplied by the square root of 2.
[tex]\text{hypotenuse}=\text{side}\sqrt{2}[/tex]
So [tex]x=24\sqrt{2} \approx 33.9[/tex]
