If two similar triangles have sides in the ratio a : b, then their areas are in the ratio a² : b².
We have the ratio:
Area of the smaler triangle = x
Area of the larger triangle = 567 cm²
Therefore we have the equation:
the picture in the attached figure
we know that
area of the triangle is equal to
in this problem
A=47 in²
b=x
h=x
so
therefore
the answer is
x=9.7 in
