Since only 2 sides are equal (not 3), this is an "isosceles triangle."
Answer:
BC=√7
Step-by-step explanation:
AC=4
AC=AH+HC
=3HC+HC
=4HC
HC=1/4AC=1/4×4=1
AH=3HC=3×1=3
BH⊥ AC
AB=AC=4

Simplify and your answer is 8
Since triangle ABC is similar to triangle DEF then the ratio of the corresponding sides is constant.
The ratio of the corresponding lengths is referred to as the linear scale factor.
Considering the heights of the two triangles;
L.S.F = 14/6
= 7/3
The ratio in area (A.S.F) is given by (L.S.F)²
Therefore, A.S.F = (7/3)² = 49/9
Thus te ratio of the area of triangle ABC to DEF is 49:9
(10,5) would make the equation correct
