3 RIGHT TRIANGLES
1 big right triangle is divided into 2 smaller ones. Medium
and small.
<span> a.How far is the spot on the beach from the parking lot? </span>
Medium triangle: long leg = 32 m ; short leg = x
Small triangle: long leg = x ; short leg = 18m
32/x = x/18
32*18 = x*x
576 = x²
√576 = √x²
24 = x
Parking lot to the beach is 24 meters.
<span>b. How far will he have to walk from the parking lot to get to the refreshment stand?</span>
Use Pythagorean theorem:
Medium triangle: long leg = 32 m ; short leg = 24 m ;
hypotenuse = ?
32²+ 24² = c²
1024 + 576 = c²
1600 = c²
√1600 = √c²
40 m = c
Parking lot to refreshment stand is 40 meters.
Answer:
It's a proportion.
2 is to x as 15 is to 9, or 2/x = 15/9.
Multiply the means and extremes
15x = 18
divide both sides by 15 to get x by itself.
x = 1.2
