Find the length of y. assume the triangles are similar

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

If the triangles are similar, the ratio between all of the sides is the same.

We see that to get the 4.2 in the big triangle to the 2.4 in the smaller triangle, we must divide by 1.75 (we get this from 4.2/2.4=1.75). So, if the ratio between all the sides is the same in both triangles, we can divide 6.3 by 1.75 to get y.

6.3/1.75=3.6

Therefore, the length of y is B. 3.6.

Have a wonderful day! :D

Answer:

3.6 = y

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use ratios to solve

2.4             y

----------- = ------------

4.2              6.3

Using cross products

2.4 * 6.3 = 4.2 y

15.12=4.2y

Divide by 4.2

15.12/4.2 = 4.2y/4.2

3.6 = y

Answer:

Perimeter = 46.6 m

Area = 78.36 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter is just the outsides, so add 3.7 + 12.3 + 4.5 +11 AND the sides you aren't given. To find them, you do 11-3.7 = 7.3 and 12.3-4.5 = 7.8. So you add 3.7 + 12.3 + 4.5 + 11 + 7.3 + 7.8 = 46.6

Area is the inside, so you multiply length by width. You can split it different ways, but I multiplied by 3.7*12.3 first, giving 45.51. Now to find the area of the other box, you need to subtract 11 by 3.7, which we saw was 7.3. Now we can multiply 7.3 by 4.5, which is 32.85. Then you add 45.51 and 32.85 to get 78.36.
