1 answer:
The length of DE in the triangles is 5.9
<h3>How to determine the length of DE?</h3>The given parameters are:
DB = 6.3
AC = 9.4
AD : DB = 3 : 5
Substitute DB = 6.3 in AD : DB = 3 : 5
AD : 6.3 = 3 : 5
Express as fraction
AD / 6.3 = 3 / 5
Multiply both sides by 6.3
AD = 3.78
The length DE is then calculated using the following ratio:
BD : DE = BA : AC
Where:
BA = BD + AD
This gives
BD : DE = BD + AD : AC
Substitute known values
6.3 : DE = 6.3 + 3.78 : 9.4
Simplify
6.3 : DE = 10.08 : 9.4
Express as fraction
DE/6.3 = 9.4/10.08
Multiply both sides by 6.3
DE = 5.9
Hence, the length of DE is 5.9
