The diagram shows two triangles that are similar. Similar triangles have equal angles and sides that are proportional to each other. Since the base of each triangle is given, we can find the proportion of the sides:

$\frac{smaller}{larger}=\frac{8}{40}=\frac{1}{5}$

Given the ratio of the smaller to larger triangle, we can set up a proportion to find the missing height of the larger triangle:

$\frac{1}{5}=\frac{5}{x}$ , where 'x' represent the height of the tree

cross-multiply: x = (5)(5) or 25 ft

Jason and Kyle both choose a number from 1 to 10 at random. What is the probability that both numbers are odd?

Artemon [7]

Your answer is

B) 1/2

because there are 5 odd and 5 even numbers from 5 through 10, so it would be 1/2.

Glad I could help, and good luck!

What is the slope of (8,10), (-7,14)

Murrr4er [49]

Reduce the expression, if possible, by cancelling the common factors.

Exact Form:
−4/15

Decimal Form:
−0.26

Basically do
y2-y1 divided by x2-x1
14-10 divided by -7-8
which equals -4/15
