Answer:
4.8 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>See comment for complete question</em>
Represent the larger triangle with 1 and the smaller with 2.
So, we have:
-- height of 1
Required
Determine H2 --- Height of 2
To do this we apply dilation formula.

In this case:

Substitute 6 for H1 and 0.8 for Scale Factor


Hence, the height of the smaller triangle is 4.8 inches

Answer:
14.4
Step-by-step explanation:
The Pythagorean theorem tells you ...
7² +a² = 16²
a² = 256 -49
a = √207
a ≈ 14.4
Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
22 - 2y
= 22 - 2 ( 10 )
= 22 - 20
= 2
The rate of increase is found by differentiating with resepect to time. The product rule comes into play here.
A = LW
dA/dt ≈ (dL/dt)·W + L·(dW/dt)
... = (6 cm/s)·(5 cm) + (7 cm)·(3 cm/s)
... = 30 cm²/s + 21 cm²/s
... = 51 cm²/s . . . . rate of area increase
