tester [92]

If the two triangles are similar you can use a proportion to solve for the length of the legs.
$\frac{2}{4}$ = $\frac{x}{9}$
Now, you would cross multiply to get
4x=18
Now, you simplify that using the division property of equality.
You end up with
x=4.5
Therefore, the legs of the triangle with a base of 9 inches will each be 4.5 units long.
