The two triangles are similar. <span>When two </span>figures<span> are </span>similar<span>, the ratios of the lengths of their corresponding sides are equal. We use this fact in order to calculate the height of the bigger triangle. We do as follows:

QP / SL = MN / SL+SR
25 / SL = 35 / SL + 13
SL = 32.5

Area = height x base / 2
Area = SL x MN / 2
Area = 32.5 x 35 / 2 = 568.75

A. Translate each of the following into algebraic expressions: (1 point each) 1.x plus y squared ---> x + y^2
2.8 times a number, x, decreased by y  ---> 8x - y
3.the sum of x and y, squared ---> (x + y)^2
4.3 times the difference of x and y ---> 3( x - y)
5.6 less than x cubed --- > x^3 - 6


B. Translate the following phrases into algebraic expressions. Explain, in complete sentences, the difference between the two. (3 points)

´twice the sum of x and y ---> 2(x + y)
´the sum of twice x and y ---> 2x + y

The first one adds first x and y, and then doubles the result, while the second one first doubles de value of x and the adds y.


C. Create your own example of a mathematical phrase you might hear in the real world and provide the translation for it. Be sure to identify what part of the phrase i
