Find the missing length for the pair of similar figures.
A. 1.125m
B 4.5m
C 7m***
D 16m
The picture shows two similar right triangles. One with the sizes 4 and 2 and the other 9 and "?"
the answer is a (3cm). I just did it
Can you help me with a problem it is in this test
its been about 6 almost 7 years and still no answer
Help is greatly appreciated :/
The answer would be B.
This is because if you find the scale factor from 2m to 9 it would be 4.5
4.5
x 2
= 9m
I tried.
someone just posted the answer wym
this questions answer is 4.5
To find the missing length for the pair of similar figures, we can set up a proportion between the corresponding sides of the two triangles.
The given triangle has sides of 4 and 2, and the missing triangle has a side of 9 and a missing side. Let's call the missing side "x".
We can set up the following proportion:
4/2 = 9/x
To solve for x, we can cross multiply and then divide:
4x = 2 * 9
4x = 18
x = 18/4
x = 4.5 m
Therefore, the missing length of the similar figure is 4.5m.
So, the correct answer is B.
