If the triangles are similar, the base should be 24 inches. The legs on the first triangle are 12 inches. To get 36 inches (the other triangle), we multiply 12 by 3. 12 x 3 = 36. Because you did that to the legs, you must also do it to the base. 8 x 3 = 24. Therefore, the base of the second triangle is 24 inches.

What is the radius of a sphere with a surface area of 100 pi cm2
Ksenya-84 [330]
The surface area of a sphere is 4r^2pi, so dividing 100 by 4pi gives a result of 25/pi.  Taking the square root and rationalizing the denominator, we have 5sqrt(pi)/pi as the radius of the sphere.
