Question

Help please!! Solve for y.

Answer 1

Answer:

y = 3$\sqrt{7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The 2 right triangles inside the right triangle are similar, then ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

$\frac{y}{9}$ = $\frac{7}{y}$ ( cross- multiply )

y² = 63 ( take the square root of both sides )

y = $\sqrt{63}$ = 3$\sqrt{7}$
