Make a proportion.

Do base over height; \frac{base}{height}.

\frac{6}{8} =  \frac{21}{h}
h is the height of the second triangle. Solve for h.

Cross multiply.
\frac{6}{8} = \frac{21}{h} 
6h = 168
h = 28

The height of the second triangle is 28 cm.

where p and q are it's diagonal

so according to the rule.

\frac{12.8 \times 8.4}{2}

\frac{107.52}{2}

Help easy math question!!!

Answer:

16 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

This ladder and building creates a right triangle with 34 as the hypotenuse and 30 as a side. the Pythagorean theorem says that a^2 + b^2 = c^2 so 900 + b^2 = 1156. b^2 = 256, square root both sides and you get b = 16

Answer:

(8, 5) (Answer C)

Step-by-step explanation:

Write this system of linear equations in a (vertical) column:

4x - 3y = 17

5x + 4y = 60

Let's eliminate y through addition/subtraction:

Multiply 4x - 3y = 17 by 4, obtaining 16x - 12y = 68, and

multiply 5x + 4y = 60 by 3, obtaining 15x + 12y = 180.  Then we have:

16x - 12y = 68

15x + 12y = 180

----------------------

31x          = 248, and so x = 248/31 = 8.

Now find y.  Substitute 8 for x in 5x + 4y = 60:  5(8) + 4y = 60, or

4y = 60 - 40 = 20.

Thus, y = 20/4, or y = 5.

The solution is (8, 5) (Answer C)
