<h3>Question</h3>- a) Are the plots of land similar?
- b) Find to the exact value of x and rounded to the nearest tenth?
The small triangle have missing angle of 180° - (52° + 58°) = 70°
This is indicating both triangles have same 3 angle measures.
Since all angles are same, the triangles are similar.
<u>Corresponding sides, against corresponding angles are:</u>
- 6180 and 8240
- x and 7436
<u>As per property of similarity, the ratio of corresponding sides is same</u>
- 6180/8240 = x/7436
- x = 6180*7436/8240
- x = 5577 feet
