Question

two similar triangles have areas of 36cm² and 64cm² respectively.if the base of the smaller triangle is 6cm.calculate the base of the larger triangle.

Answer 1

Answer:

HEYY!!

the base of the larger triangle is 8

Step-by-step explanation:

By the theorm

If two triangles are similar, then the ratio of the area of both triangles is proportional to the square of the ratio of their corresponding sides.

so,

36/64=(6)^2/(x)^2

solving it we get value of x is 8

Hope this helps!
