Answer:

The area of the smaller triangle is 75.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the ratio of the sides of the similar triangle are 5 : 6

The area if the larger triangle = 108

let us assume that the area of the smaller triangle = m

By the Theorem:

In two similar triangles, the ratio of the areas of similar triangles is the square of the ratio of their sides.

Similarly, here

[tex](\frac{5}{6}) ^2  = \frac{m}{108}[/tex]

⇒\frac{(5)^2}{(6)^2}   = \frac{m}{108}

or, \frac{25}{36}   = \frac{m}{108}  \implies m = \frac{108 \times 25}{36}  = 75

⇒ m = 75

Hence, the area of the smaller triangle is 75.

Find the perimeter of the figure to the nearest hundredth. Sorry to ask ANOTHER question on this stuff but I'm doing an assignme
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

I did my best, but it has been a while. I really hope that this helps

Step-by-step explanation:

so you can find the perimeter of a circle

-----The perimeter of a circle is π × d where d is the diameter so half of that is 1/2 π × d. But If you are going to walk around a semicircle, you need to go halfway around the circle and then across a diagonal to get back to where you started, so the perimeter is 1/2 π × d + d.
