Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
Corresponding sides are proportional in these similar triangles.
__
short side/long side = k/4 = 4/8
k = 4(4/8) . . . . multiply by 4
k = 2
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
The lengths of the hypotenuses can be found the same way, or using the Pythagorean theorem. Using side ratios, we have ...
l² = k(k+8) = 2(10) = 20 . . . . from MN/MO = ML/MN
l = 2√5
m² = 8(8+2) = 80 . . . . from LN/LO = LM/LN
m = 4√5
The similarity statements are ...
ΔLMN ~ ΔLNO ~ ΔNMO
Match both sides so they're the same
3*y*5*b*10 = 3*y*5*b*10
it's just 3y
Answer:
N = 18
Step-by-step explanation:
The triangles are similar, thus the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is
= 
( cross- multiply )
5N = 90 ( divide both sides by 5 )
N = 18
Answer:
750 square feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a triangle is 1/2bh
Now, we can plug our values in.
1/2(100)(15)
Simplify
50(15)
750
