Question

PLEASE HELP ASAP!!!!!!!!!!! For similar triangles, the side lengths are proportional. So, you can write a proportion relating the two pairs of vertical and horizontal side lengths. For the line y = 2x, a triangle can be drawn 2 units up and 1 unit right from the origin. Write a proportion relating the side lengths of the triangle to any other triangle that has the line as a hypotenuse, a horizontal length of x units, and a vertical length of y units.

Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{y}{2}=\frac{x}{1}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional and its corresponding angles are congruent

The corresponding vertical sides are y and 2

The corresponding horizontal lines are x and 1

so

The proportion is equal to

$\frac{y}{2}=\frac{x}{1}$
