Step-by-step explanation:
We will learn how to solve proportion problems. We know, the first term (1st) and the fourth term (4th) of a proportion are called extreme terms or extremes, and the second term (2nd) and the third term (3rd) are called middle terms or means.
Therefore, in a proportion, product of extremes = product of middle terms
example
1. Check whether the two ratios form a proportion or not:
(i) 6 : 8 and 12 : 16; (ii) 24 : 28 and 36 : 48
Solution:
(i) 6 : 8 and 12 : 16
6 : 8 = 6/8 = 3/4
12 : 16 = 12/16 = 3/4
Thus, the ratios 6 : 8 and 12 : 16 are equal.
Therefore, they form a proportion.
There are as many fractions equal to 4/5 as there are numbers, but here are a couple that fit:
20/25
8/10
12/15

Answer:
16
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's give letters as the image. Triangle ABH is a right triangle, so you can apply pythagoream theorem. In particular, it's the classic "3-4-5" triangle (there are some triplets of integers that gives you a right triangle, and 3-4-5 is the most famous). Either way, the height of the triangle is 4.
At that point you can compute the area by multiplying base and height, and the total surface is 16.
