Question

ratio of areas of two with equal heights is 2:3.if the base of the smaller triangle is 6cm what is the base of the corresponding base of the bigger triangle.give full explalantion pls

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratios are 2:3

Base of smaller triangle is 6cm

So we need to do cross multiplication

2/3, 6/x, 3×6= 2×x.

So 2×x= 18, x= 18/2= 9

Your answer is 9

Answer 2

Ratio=2:3
h1=h2
b1=6cm
b2=x
2/3=1/2(6)(h1)
—————-
1/2(x)(h2)
2 = 6
_. _
3. x

=2x=6(3)
2x=18
x=9

Hopefully this helps
