Answer:
n = 35 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Blue Triangle
Longer side = 91
Shortest side = 39
Brown triangle
Longer side = x
Shortest side = 15 in
When you have two triangles that are similar you have to set up your proportion like this
brown long/brown shorter = blue longer / blue shorter
x/ 15 = 91/39 Multiply both sides by 15
x = 91 * 15/ 39
x = 1365 /39
x = 35
Answer:
they tried 24 times

you have find out how many shots they made and then find out what times three equals that
Answer:
(C) 2√15
Step-by-step explanation:
Recognize that all the triangles are right triangles, so are similar to each other. In these similar triangles, the ratio of the short side to the long side is the same for all.
... CB/CA = CT/CB
... CB² = CA·CT = 10·6 = 60 . . . . . . . . . . multiply by CA·CB; substitute values
... CB = √60 = 2√15 . . . . . . . take the square root; simplify

<em>Comment on this solution</em>
The altitude to the hypotenuse of a right triangle (CB in this case) divides the hypotenuse into lengths such that the altitude is their geometric mean. That is ...
... CB = √(AC·CT) . . . . as above
This is true for any right triangle — another fact of geometry to put in your list of geometry facts.
