you have two triangles one is bigger one is smaller the sides of the first triangle are
2 in and 6.4 in. the secound triangle are x and 9.6 in.
what is the length of X
To find the length of x, you can use the concept of similarity of triangles.
The ratio of corresponding sides of similar triangles is equal.
In this case, the ratio of the sides of the smaller triangle to the larger triangle is the same as the ratio of the corresponding sides given.
So, you would have:
x/2 = 9.6/6.4
Cross-multiplying:
6.4 * x = 2 * 9.6
6.4x = 19.2
Dividing both sides by 6.4:
x = 19.2/6.4
x ≈ 3 inches
