Write and solve an equation of ratios based upon the fact that the small and large triangles shown are similar:
5 6
---- = ---------
14 6 + x
Then 30 + 5x = 84, and 5x = 54, and so x = 54/5, or 10.8, or 10 4/5.
You just find the numbers that you can multiply to get -28
Area=1/2 times height times base
base=2.5
area=3.75
subsitute
3.75=1/2 times height times 2.5
multiply both sides by 2 to get rid of fraction
7.5=height itmes 2.5
divide both sides by 2.5
3=height
sail is 3 meters tall
If we write
where we see
in the equation and set the result equal to
, we get the result.
