Length of the rope = 12 x 5 = 60 m

Length of each divided rope = 60 divided by 3 = 20 m

Therefore, each piece of rope is 20 m long.

The AAA theorem states that triangles are similar if all three corresponding angles are equal.

1. Compare triangles FHS and ILS

(a) Reason for similarity

∠F = ∠I = 90°

∠S is common.

∴ ∠H = ∠L

(b) Calculate SL

$\begin{array}{rcl}\dfrac{SF}{SH} & = & \dfrac{SI}{SL}\\\\\dfrac{225}{380} & = & \dfrac{225 + 475}{SL}\\\\225SL & = & 380 \times 700\\& = & 266000\\SL & = & \textbf{1182 m}\\\end{array}$

2. Compare triangles ILS and GLE

(a) Reason for similarity

∠I = ∠G = 90°

∠L is common.

∴ ∠S = ∠E

(b) Calculate LE

$\begin{array}{rcl}\dfrac{IS}{GE} & = & \dfrac{LS}{LE}\\\\\dfrac{700}{180} & = & \dfrac{1182}{LE}\\\\700LE & = & 180 \times 1182\\& = & 212800\\LE & = & \textbf{304.0 m}\\\end{array}$

3. Calculate EH

LE + EH + HS = LS

304.0 m + EH + 380 m = 1182 m

EH + 684 m = 1182 m

EH = 498 m

The distance from E to H is 498 m.

joja [24]

Answer:

0.7x/0.8y = x/y * 0.7/0.8 = x/y * 0.875

So the fraction is reduced by 12.5%
