Do ratios 15:5 and 6:2 form a proportion?

For two ratios to form a proportion they have to be equal.

To see if two ratios are equal we express them in their simplest form.

In this case we notice that in the first ratio both numbers are multiples of five, then:

15\colon5=3\colon1

In the second case we notice that both numbers are multiples of 2, then:

6\colon2=3\colon1

Since both ratios can be simplified to the same final ratio, they form a proportion.

suppose someone tells you that she has a triangle with sides having lengths 2.6, 8.1 and 8.6 is this a right triangle? why or wh
yawa3891 [41]
By the converse of the Pythagorean Theorem, if 8.6 ^2 = 8.1 ^2 + 2.6 ^2 , then the triangle is right. 73.96 is not equal to 72.37 so the triangle is not a right triangle.

8.6^2 is greater than (8.1^2 + 2.6^2) which means that the triangle is obtuse.
The obtuse angle is opposite the 8.6 side.
