Answer:sum of the squares of hyp is 50 then the two sides are equal .let the two sides be x

Step-by-step explanation:50 = x²+x²

                                            50=2x²

                                             50÷2=x²

                                                25=x²

                                               √25=x ∴the two legs=5
