Answer:
I'm not sure about that one sorry but I will look it up
The scale factor is 0.25, not 4 in this case. You can determine this by looking at the comparison of the triangles. The first triangle is 4.4 and the second one is 1.1, so the scale factor is determined by looking at what is happening to the first one to result in the second.
0.25 is 1/4. The second hypotenuse is 1/4 the hypotenuse of the first one.
29.8 ÷ 3 is 9.9333 repeating
Given:
In triangle DEF, HG is parallel to DF.
To find:
The value of x.
Solution:
In triangles DEF and GEH,
(Common angle)
(Corresponding angle)
(By AA property of similarity)
We know that corresponding sides of similar triangle are proportional.
Isolating variable terms, we get
Therefore, the value of x is equal to 4.
