Question

One triangle has sides that measure 8 yards, 15 yards, and 17 yards. The side lengths of a second triangle are 48 yards, 90 yards, and 102 yards. What is the constant of proportionality between the second and first triangle

Answer 1

The answer to you question is represented down below \/.

Triangle 1 =

Side A. 8 yd

Side B. 15 yd

Side C. 17 yd

Triangle 2:

Side A. 48 yd

Side B. 90 yd

Side C. 102 yd

How I did it:

Use the equivalent side from each triangle and / Triangle 1's side by Triangle 2's side..

Which then you will get the following:

T1Sa/T2Sa = 8yd / 48yd = 1/6

T1Sb/T2Sb = 15yd / 90yd = 1/6

T1Sc/T2Sc = 17yd / 102yd = 1/6

Therefore it being, 1/6
