Given:
Triangles FRI and DAY are similar.
To find:
Similarity ratio
Solution:
<em>If two triangles are similar then the corresponding angles are congruent and the corresponding sides are in proportion.</em>
Here, FR and DA are corresponding sides.
Cancel the common factors of 4 and 6, we get
⇒ FR : DA = 2 : 3
⇒ ΔFRI : ΔDAY = 2 : 3
Similarity ratio of the first triangle to the second triangle is 2 : 3.
Answer:
Length of Chord QS = 33
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Length of Chord QS</u>:
QW X WS = PW = WR
12(4x + 1) = 14(3x + 3)
48x + 12 = 42x + 42
48x - 42x = 42 - 12
6x = 30
x = = 5
∴ Length of Chord QS = 12 + 4(5) + 1 = 13 + 20 = 33
The intersecting chords theorem or just The chord theorem is a statement in elementary geometry that describes a relation of the four line segments created by two intersecting chords within a circle. It states that the products of the lengths of the line segments on each chord are equal. Each chord is cut into two segments at the point of where they intersect. One chord is cut into two line segments A and B. The other into the segments C and D. This theorem states that A×B is always equal to C×D no matter where the chords are.
