Answer:

  8√2

Step-by-step explanation:

The hypotenuse of a right triangle is √2 times the leg length, so you have ...

  [tex]x\sqrt{2}=16[/tex]

Dividing by the coefficient of x gives ...

  [tex]x=\dfrac{16}{\sqrt{2}}=\dfrac{16\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{2}\cdot\sqrt{2}}=8\sqrt{2}[/tex]

Each leg has length 8√2.
