Triangle NTE is similar to triangle KLA. If LA-8, EN 125, and AK 5, what is the length of TE? (1 point)
A. 78
B. 100
C. 25
D. 200
Since triangle NTE is similar to triangle KLA, the corresponding sides are proportional.
Given: LA-8, EN-125, AK-5
We can set up the proportion:
EA/LA = TE/AK
Substituting the given lengths:
125/8 = TE/5
Cross-multiplying:
625 = 8 * TE
TE = 625/8 = 78.125
The length of TE is approximately equal to 78.
Therefore, the answer is A. 78.
