Question

A triangle is 20 in tall and 5 in wide. If it is reduced to a width of 1 in then how tall will it be?​

Answer 1

4 inches tall

Explanation:

To find how tall it will be, use the same reduction scale that was used to reduce the width.

This scale is 5, since 5 divided by 5 is 1.

So, to find how tall it will be, divide 20 by 5:

20/5

= 4

So, it will be 4 inches tall
