Yes, you are correct.
From the image, we can see 3 triangles, the large triangle and the two triangles that make the larger triangle.
All 3 of these triangles are similar since they're angle measurements are the same (can be proven by geometry).
We can gather the following information from the given information.
- The largest triangle (the one made up of two triangles) has a hypotenuse of 3+9=12, and a leg length of x. The hypotenuse to leg ratio is 12/x
- The second largest triangle has a hypotenuse length x and leg length 9. The hypotenuse to leg ratio is x/9
We know the hypotenuse to corresponding leg ratio must be equal since these two triangles are similar. Thus, we have the equation:
12/x = x/9
Using the cross product property gives us:
x² = 9 × 12
x² = 108
Taking the square root of both sides gives us:
x = √108
= 6 √3
Thus, your answer is correct. Great job!
Let me know if you need any clarifications, thanks!
Answer:
7/9 ÷ 1/3 = 21/9 as simplified as 7/3 in fraction form. 7/9 ÷ 1/3 = 2.3333 in decimal form.
Answer:
C.
Step-by-step explanation:
Because there is constant term 4 in the question, but there is no any such constant term in the given options.
According to my calculations the answer is 69
The lengths of the sides of the triangle:
No sides are equal to each other, so it's a scalene triangle.
Check if the sides satisfy the Pythagorean theorem:
They do, so it's a right triangle.
The triangle is a
right scalene triangle.
