Question

If anyone can help me I’d be glad. I’m not the best at geometry :/

Answer 1

Answer:

C) 1.25

Step-by-step explanation:

The hypotenuse is the sloping side.

The base is the bottom side.

The triangles are similar, so you can use the sides of either triangle. Let's use the side lengths of the smaller triangle.

Length of hypotenuse: 5

Length of base: 4

Ratio of hypotenuse to base: 5/4

To find a decimal value, divide 5 by 4. Use a calculator or long division.

5/4 = 1.25

Answer: C) 1.25
