Change 15/20 to 3/4
Now we have $\frac{x}{6} = \frac{3}{4}$
multiply 6 to 3= 18 ÷ 4 = 4.5
x = 4.5

One of the legs of a right triangle is 9 cm. If the area of the triangle is 225 cm², then the length of the other leg is

ioda

Given:

One of the legs of a right triangle is 9 cm.

The area of the triangle is 225 cm².

To find:

The length of the other leg.

Solution:

The area of a triangle is

$Area=\dfrac{1}{2}\times Base\times Height$

The area of a right triangle is

$Area=\dfrac{1}{2}\times (leg_1)\times (leg_2)$

Let x be the length of other leg.

$225=\dfrac{1}{2}\times (9)\times (x)$

$2\times 225=9x$

$\dfrac{450}{9}=x$

$50=x$

Therefore, the length of the other leg is 50 cm.

-3 + 3n = -6 - 6n. Expand the brackets
3n + 6n = -6 + 3. Collect like terms
9n = -3
n = -3/9 = -1/3
