Ratio of the sizes of the smaller triangle to the sizes of the bigger triangle is 15 : 35 = 3 : 7 = 1 : 7/3

Area of triangle = 1/2bh
Ratio of the area of the smaller triangle to the area of the bigger trfiangle is 1/2bh : 1/2(7/3b)(7/3h)
1/2bh : 49/9(1/2bh)
270ft^2 : 49/9(270ft^2)

The best approximation of the area of the larger triangle is 1,470 ft^2

Which set of numbers could represent the lengths of the sides of a right triangle?
Degger [83]

Answer:

3,4,5

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to select the set that could work and the sides of a right angled triangle

the correct answer is 3,4,5

These set are called a Pythagorean triple

This is because adding the square of the two smaller number will give the square of the largest number

What we are saying here is that by adding the square of 3 and 4, we get the square of 5 which illustrates that Pythagoras theorem works for the set

mixer [17]

we are given

In A 4 year period, About 80,000 acres of coastal wetlands in United States are lost each year.

so, total area =80000 acres

total time = 4 years

now, we can use formula

total change in wetlands = ( total area)/(total time)

now, we can plug values

total change in wetlands is

=\frac{80000}{4} acre/year

=20000 acre/year................Answer
