Sas only because the triangles and usually congruent to me or in my opponion
Given:
1 inch : 18 kilometers
Let us use the ratio and proportion method:
a:b = c:d where ad = bc
0.8 inches is <u>14.4 kilometers</u>
1 : 18 = 0.8 : x
x = 0.8 * 18
x = 14.4 km
1.4 inches is <u>25.2 kilometers</u>
1: 18 = 1.4 : x
x = 18 * 1.4
x = 25.2 km
2.1 inches is <u>37.8 kilometers</u>
1 : 18 = 2.1 : x
x = 18 * 2.1
x = 37.8 km
The distance formula to find the length of the sides... opposite sides equal it could be a rectangle or parallelogram all sides equal, square or rhombus adjacent equal, kite and then the slope is used to check angles if the product of the 2 lines in -1 the lines are perpendicular (right angle) the slopes of 2 lines are the same the sides are parallel. Hope it helps.
