Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
You are to assume in both problems that the two triangles are similar. That is a very dangerous assumption -- especially in later math classes. But in this case, there is no other way to do the problem. The two sets of triangles look like they are proportional. So set up two ratios that are = to each other
On the left
long side small triange / long side large triangle = base small triangle / base large triangle
On the right
hypotenuse/longest leg = hypotenuse / longest leg.
Problem A
Set up the similar Proportion
5/40 = x/20 Cross Multiply
40x = 20*5
40x = 100 Divide by 40
x = 100/40
x = 2.5
Problem B
Again set up the similar triangle proportion
15/10 = x/2 Multiply by 2
15*2/10 = x
3 = x
You need to do this in several steps.
1) Using the given length and width of the rectangle, find its area.
2) Then using the base and height of the triangle, find its area.
3) Since the areas are equal, set the expressions equal to each other, and solve for x.
4) Using the value of x you found, find the length and width of the rectangle and find its perimeter.
1) The area of the rectangle is A = LW
Area of Rectangle = (x + 2)x = x^2 + 2x
2) The area of the triangle is A = (1/2)bh
Area of Triangle = (1/2)(24)x = 12x
3) Set the areas equal and solve for x
x^2 + 2x = 12x
x^2 - 10x = 0
x(x - 10) = 0
x = 0 or x = 10
Since a width cannot be 0, we discard x = 0, and keep x = 10.
4) The length is x + 2 = 10 + 2 = 12
The width is x = 10
The perimeter is 2(L + W) = 2(10 + 2) = 2(22) = 44
The perimeter is 44 cm.
