$$\frac{{x}}{\mathrm{1}}=\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{1}−{x}^{\mathrm{2}} }}{{x}}\:\:\left[{similarity}\:{of}\:{triangle}\right] \\ $$$${x}^{\mathrm{2}} =\sqrt{\mathrm{1}−{x}^{\mathrm{2}} } \\ $$$${x}^{\mathrm{4}} +{x}^{\mathrm{2}} −\mathrm{1}=\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{x}^{\mathrm{2}} =\frac{−\mathrm{1}\pm\sqrt{\mathrm{5}}}{\mathrm{2}}\:\:\Rightarrow{x}=\sqrt{\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{5}}−\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}\:\:} \\ $$$${a}=\frac{\mathrm{1}+{x}^{\mathrm{2}} }{{x}}\Rightarrow\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{5}}+\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}×\sqrt{\frac{\mathrm{2}}{\:\sqrt{\mathrm{5}}−\mathrm{1}}} \\ $$

$${x}+{b}={a} \\ $$$${tan}\theta=\frac{{x}}{\mathrm{1}} \\ $$$${cos}\theta=\frac{{x}}{\mathrm{1}} \\ $$$$\frac{{sin}\theta}{{cos}\theta}={cos}\theta \\ $$$${t}=\mathrm{1}−{t}^{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$$${t}^{\mathrm{2}} +{t}−\mathrm{1}=\mathrm{0} \\ $$$${t}=\frac{−\mathrm{1}\pm\sqrt{\mathrm{1}+\mathrm{4}}}{\mathrm{2}}=\frac{−\mathrm{1}\pm\sqrt{\mathrm{5}}}{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$$${t}={sin}\theta=\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{5}}\:−\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$$${cos}^{\mathrm{2}} \theta=\mathrm{1}−\left(\frac{\mathrm{5}+\mathrm{1}−\mathrm{2}\sqrt{\mathrm{5}}\:}{\mathrm{4}}\right)=\frac{\mathrm{4}−\mathrm{6}+\mathrm{2}\sqrt{\mathrm{5}}}{\mathrm{4}}=\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{5}}\:−\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$$${x}=\sqrt{\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{5}}\:−\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}}\: \\ $$$${sin}\theta=\frac{\sqrt{{x}^{\mathrm{2}} +\mathrm{1}}\:}{{a}} \\ $$$${a}=\frac{\sqrt{{x}^{\mathrm{2}} +\mathrm{1}}\:}{{sin}\theta}=\frac{\sqrt{\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{5}}\:−\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}+\mathrm{1}}\:}{\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{5}}\:−\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}}=\frac{\sqrt{\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{5}}\:+\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}}}{\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{5}}\:−\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}} \\ $$
