If the triangles are similar, then the corresponding ratio of their sides have equal ratios. Through ratio and proportion, we would determine the answer.
5/6 = x/9, where x is the length for side PN
Transposing the equation so that x is on the left side:
x = (5/6)*9
x = 7.5
Answer:
Altitude of the plane is 0.5 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
From the figure attached,
An airplane A is at height h miles observes a small airstrip at D and a factory at F, 4.8 miles apart from D.
Angle of depressions for the airstrip is 13.1° and the factory is 4.1°.
We have to calculate the airplane's altitude h.
From ΔABF,
tan4.1 = 
h = 0.07168(x + 4.8) -----(1)
From ΔABD,
tan13.1 = 
h = 0.2327x -----(2)
From equation (1) and (2),
0.07168(x + 4.8) = 0.2327x
0.2327x - 0.07168x = 4.8×0.07168
0.161x = 0.344
x = 
miles
From equation (2),
h = 0.2327×2.137
h = 0.4972 miles
h ≈ 0.5 miles
Therefore, 0.5 miles is the altitude of the plane.
Answer:

3.6 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Blake can do work in hours = 9
Blake can do a part of work in 1 hour = 1/9
Ned can paint the same room in six hours.
Ned can do a part of work in 1 hour = 1/6
They can do a part of work together in 1 hour = 1/9+1/6
= 5/18
Now they can do 5/18} part of work in hour = 1
So, they can do whole work in hours = 1/5/18
= 3.6
Hence it will take 3.6 hours to paint the room if they work together.
Answer:
8:10 and 12:15
Step-by-step explanation:
to find the two equivalent ratios of 4:5 we need to apply multiplication method only to get the answer in integer form therefore, the equivalent ratios of 4:5 are 8:10 and 12:15
