Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
You must draw a right triangle and label the hypotenuse as 41 and the longest leg (horizontal in this case, since we are to determine the height) as 40. We do not know the height so call it h.
Now the Pythagorean (sp /) Theorem states that the square of the hyp. is equal to the sum of the squares of the two legs.
so, 41 ^ 2 = 40 ^ 2 + h ^ 2
41 ^ 2 = 1681 40 ^ 2 = 1600 Therefore h ^2 must be equal to 81. This means that h = 9.
The height is 9 inches.

Answer:
The best estimate of the area of the larger figure is 
Step-by-step explanation:
step 1
<em>Find the scale factor</em>
we know that
If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is equal to the scale factor
Let
z----> the scale factor
x-----> the corresponding side of the larger figure
y-----> the corresponding side of the smaller figure
so

we have


substitute
-----> the scale factor
step 2
<em>Find the area of the larger figure</em>
we know that
If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its areas is equal to the scale factor squared
Let
z----> the scale factor
x-----> the area of the larger figure
y-----> the area of the smaller figure
so

we have


substitute and solve for x

16.454 because there is an extra 4 after the 5
These two are true:
