Two triangles r the same height. The slope side of triangle A is double the slope of B. how do the lengths of these two triangles compare?
A very confusing question.
Are the triangles right-angled?
"The slope side of triangle A is double the slope of B"
---> a triangle has 3 sides, what does "slope side" mean? the slope of which side?
What is triangle A and what is triangle B.
It says, they r shaped as icicles
If the length of the two triangles are x and y, then
h/x = sinθ
h/y = sin2θ
x/y = sin2θ/sinθ = 2cosθ
or
2(h/x)√(1-(h/x)^2) = h/y
Not sure just where you want to go with this.
To compare the lengths of two triangles, we need more information. The fact that the two triangles have the same height implies that the height is the perpendicular distance from the base to the opposite vertex. However, this information alone cannot determine the lengths of the triangles.
You mentioned that the slope of side A is double the slope of side B. It appears that you are referring to the slope of the lines containing these sides, but we need more context to proceed. Specifically, we need information about the relationship between the bases or the angles formed by the slopes of the sides. Please provide additional details or clarify the question so that we can assist you further.
