Question

HELP ME PLZZ IM CRYING BC I WILL FAIL

Answer 1

A) 8

Explanation:

There are two ways you can solve this:

1. Pythagorean Theorem
2. Division/Proportion

Pythagorean Theorem:

The Pythagorean Theorem states:
`a^(2) +b^(2) =c^(2)` and
`c^(2) -a^(2) =b^(2)` or
`c^(2) -b^(2) =a^(2)`. Sides a and b represent the legs of the right triangle. The side length c represents the hypotenuse. So, we need to find one of the legs (b) of the smaller triangle. To do this, we can use the equation:

Division/Proportion:

Line DH has two measures: 3 and 6. The total length of the line is 9. This means that triangle DHM has a side length of 9 compared to triangle FHK's side length of 6. Turn this into the ratio 9:6. Now divide 9/6 to get 1.5. This means that the larger triangle (DHM) is 1.5 times larger than the smaller triangle (FHK). To solve for side length b, divide 12/1.5 to get 8.

Note:

Hope it helps!
