The two quadrilaterals are given similar .
In any similar figure sides are in proportion.The second largest side of quadrilateral ABCD is 16 ft .Let the second longest side of quadrilateral EFGH be x ft. These sides will be in proportion to each other .
The second shortest side of quadrilateral EFGH that is GF will be proportional to the third longest side of quadrilateral ABCD that is BC
We can form a proportion with the proportional sides:
To solve for x we cross multiply
12x=(16)(18)
12x=288
Dividing both sides by 12 we get
x=24.
The second longest side of quadrilateral EFGH is 24 ft.
Answer:
? = 26 in
Step-by-step explanation:
Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle.
The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides, that is
?² = 24² + 10² = 576 + 100 = 676 ( take the square root of both sides )
? = = 26
