Question

I NEED HELP ASAP!5. Could the following triangles lie on the samegraphed line? Why or why not? (15, 2) (51, 6)

Answer 1

`\text{ Remember that Tales theorem states:}`
`\begin{gathered} \text{ So, if the trangles lied on the same graphed line, they would satisfy Tales theorem, and } \\ \\ (2)/(15)=(6)/(51) \\ \end{gathered}`
`\begin{gathered} \text{ But that's not the case, because } \\ (2)/(15)\approx0.1333 \\ \text{and } \\ (6)/(51)\approx0.0117 \end{gathered}`

So the triangles don't satisfy tales theorem and they dont lie on the same line.
