Answer:

The width of the second triangle is 2cm

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate this we first have to calculate the ratio of the width to the length

for this we divide the width by the length

3.2cm / 8cm = 0.4

Now that we have the relationship, we multiply the length of the new rectangle by 0.4 and we will obtain the width of this rectangle

5cm * 0.4 = 2cm

The width of the second triangle is 2cm
