Question

Help please I’m confused

Answer 1

Answer:

h = 5.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Basically these are 2 similar triangles. That means:

Corresponding sides are proportional.

We can set up a ratio of each triangle separately and equate, cross multiply and solve for "h".

h corresponds to 2.4

2.9 corresponds to 1.3

Setting up the ratio and solving for h:

$\frac{h}{2.4}=\frac{2.9}{1.3}\\1.3h=2.4*2.9\\1.3h=6.96\\h=\frac{6.96}{1.3}\\h=5.35$

Rounded to 1 decimal place,

h = 5.4
