Answer:

  3 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of areas of similar figures is the square of the ratio of linear dimensions. That means the ratio of linear dimensions is the square root of the area ratio. The ratio of the smaller triangle dimensions to the larger is then ...

  k = √((8 cm^2)/(18 cm^2)) = √(4/9) = 2/3

Then the corresponding side of the smaller triangle is ...

... k · (4.5 cm) = (2/3)·(4.5 cm) = 3 cm

In how many ways can we pick three different numbers out of the group
ELEN [110]

i will bite - this is not a complete ans but an approximation:

there are 100*99*98 ways to pick 3 different no. out of 100

if 2 of the no. picked are >10, then there is no way the third no. can be larger than the products of the other 2 nos.

there are 90*89*98 ways to pick 2 nos between 10 and 100 and a third no. between 1 and 100.

So an approximate ans = 100*99*98 - 90*89*98 = 185220 but the actual ans will be smaller than this.
