Answer:
<h2>
<u>-1 + √3 or -(1 - 2√3)</u></h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
(1 + √3) (2 - √3) = 2 - √3 + 2√3 - 3 = 2 - 3 - √3 + 2√3 = <u>-1 + √3 or -(1 - 2√3)</u>
If two similar triangles have side lengths 3cm and 7cm then we can determine that the scale factor for the lengths is: 7/3
Now, we have to work out the area scale factor !
This is simple, since area is given in cm² then all we have to do is square our original scale factor!
So,
7/3² = 49/9
So, we can say that the ratio of the area would be:
x : 49/9x
