The triangles are similar so corresponding sides will be in ratio. The first triangle has sides of 2, 4, and 6. The second triangle has a largest side of 24. You are asked to find the perimeter of the second triangle.
The largest side of the first triangle is 6 and the largest side of the second triangle is 24. This is a ratio of 6:24 which can be reduced to 1:4.
Each side of the second triangle is 4 times as large as the corresponding side of the first triangle.
Now we can calculate the other 2 sides.
2 x 4 = 8
4 x 4 = 16
The three sides are 8, 16 and 24
Perimeter of this triangle is 8 + 16 + 24 = 48

a) The first integral corresponds to the area under y = f(x) on the interval [0, 3], which is a right triangle with base 3 and height 5, hence the integral is

$\displaystyle \int_0^3 f(x) \, dx = \frac12 \times 3 \times 5 = \boxed{\frac{15}2}$

b) The integral is zero since the areas under the curve over [3, 4] and [4, 5] are equal but opposite in sign. In other words, on the interval [3, 5], f(x) is symmetric and odd about x = 4, so

$\displaystyle \int_3^5 f(x) \, dx = \int_3^4 f(x) \, dx + \int_4^5 f(x) \, dx = \int_3^4 f(x) \, dx - \int_3^4 f(x) \, dx = \boxed{0}$
