The possible base and height of a second triangle are 12 and 7, respectively

<h3>How to determine the possible base and height of a second triangle?</h3>

An inverse variation is represented as:

Base * Height = k

Where k is the constant of variation.

In this case, k is the area

So, we have:

Base * Height  = Area

For the first triangle, we have:

14 * 6 = Area

Evaluate

Area = 84

Substitute Area = 84 in Base * Height  = Area

Base * Height  = 84

Express 84 as the product of two numbers

Base * Height  = 12 * 7

By comparison;

Base =12 and Height = 7

Hence, the possible base and height of a second triangle are 12 and 7, respectively

lighting if a 25-foot-tall house cast a 75-foot shadow at the same time that a streetlight casts a 60-foot shadow how tall is th
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

The street light is 20 feet tall.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question depends on a proportion. Keep your height of the object in one ratio and the length of the shadow in the other.

25/x = 75/60      Notice the height of the structure is on the left. The length of the shadow is on the right. Cross multiply

75x =  60 * 25     Combine the right

75x = 1500          Divide by 75

x = 1500/75

x = 20

The street light is 20 feet tall.
