Question

An architect planned to construct two similar stone pyramid structures in a park. The figure below shows the front view of the pyramids in her plan, but there is an error in the dimensions: Two similar scalene triangles PQR and ABC with angle P congruent to angle A, angle Q congruent to angle B, and QR and BC as the Which of the following changes should she make to the length of side CA to correct her error?

Answer 1

The options for this question are missing. Here are the missing options:

A) Change the length of side CB to 13 feet

B) Change the length of side CB to 11 feet

C) Change the length of side CB to 8 feet

D) Change the length of side CB to 8.5 feet

The correct answer for this question is Option C) Change the length of side CB to 8 feet

We will use the following formula to find the solution to this question:

7.5/6  = 5/4 = 10/CB

1.25 = 1.25 = 10/CB

1.25 CB = 10

CB = 10/1.25

CB = 8

Answer 2

✌️✌️ hey mate,

There should be the options that you haven't written but that are below....

1. Change the length of side CB to 13 feet

2. Change the length of side CB to 11 feet

3. Change the length of side CB to 8 feet

4. Change the length of side CB to 8.5 feet

The correct Option is

3. Change the length of side CB to 8 feet

By using the following formula -

7.5/6  = 5/4 = 10/CB

1.25 = 1.25 = 10/CB

1.25 CB = 10

CB = 10/1.25

CB = 8

thanks...
nice to help you ✌️✌️
