Triangles IJK and LMN are similar. Find y using proportions. Explain and show all your steps.

Mathematics

Deffense [45]1 year ago

Triangles IJK and LMN are similar. Then, the proportion between their similar sides must be equal. That is:

IJ/ML = JK/MN = IK/LN

where:

IJ = x

JK = 54

IK = y

MN = 42

ML = 28

NL = 35

In order to find the value of y, you consider the equation JK/MN = IK/LN, and solve for y, just as follow

JK/MN = IK/LN replace by the values

54/42 = y/35 multiply both sides by 35

(54/42)(35) = y

45 = y

Hence, y = 45

Side length of square (inches): 1 ,2, 4, 7

Perimeter of square (inches). : 4, 8, 16, 28

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio is 1:4 (S:P).

So:

#:8, #=2. This is because 2/8 and 1/4 both = 0.25.

#:16, #=4. 4/16=0.25

7:#, #=28. 4x7=28, 7/28=0.25

Hope that helps
