To answer this, we let x some factor that would agree or make the ratio given true. We calculate as follows:
<span>2:3:4
2x:3x:4x
2x = 12
x = 6
Therefore, the length of the longest side would be 4x = 4(6) = 24 cm, third option.</span>
ANSWER
C) Triangle
EXPLANATION
Solving a triangle is the process of calculating unknown side lengths or angle measures of a triangle if certain of the side lengths and/or angle measures are known.
We use the sine rule and cosine rule to find the missing sides and angles.
If the triangle has a right angle, then this is a special case, where we can use the trigonometric ratios and the Pythagoras theorem to find the unknown angles and sides.
y^2 +6^2 = 12^2
y^2 +36 = 144
y^2 = 108
sqrt(108) = 10.392 = 6sqrt(3)
Answer is B 6sqrt(3)
You can see if they are similar by looking at the sides.
If each of the sides have the same proportion then they are similar.
24/3 = 8
32/4 = 8
112/14 = 8
Yes they are similar and their ratio is 1:8
Hope this helps :)
Given the following table that gives data from a linear function:
![\begin {tabular} {|c|c|c|c|} Temperature, $y = f(x)$ (^\circ C)&0&5&20 \\ [1ex] Temperature, $x$ (^\circ F)&32&41&68 \\ \end {tabular}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cbegin%20%7Btabular%7D%0A%7B%7Cc%7Cc%7Cc%7Cc%7C%7D%0ATemperature%2C%20%24y%20%3D%20f%28x%29%24%20%28%5E%5Ccirc%20C%29%260%265%2620%20%5C%5C%20%5B1ex%5D%0ATemperature%2C%20%24x%24%20%28%5E%5Ccirc%20F%29%2632%2641%2668%20%5C%5C%20%0A%5Cend%20%7Btabular%7D)
The formular for the function can be obtained by choosing two points from the table and using the formular for the equation of a straight line.
Recall that the equation of a straight line is given by

Using the points (32, 0) and (41, 5), we have:
