5.
The height of a trapezoid (h) measures 4 cm. Its shorter
base (b) measures 3 cm. A similar trapezoid has a
shorter base measuring 15 cm. Use proportional
reasoning to find the height of that similar trapezoid.

Answer 1

20

Explanation:

if two trapezoids are the same proportions, and one is 3cm, and the other is 15, the makes that second 5 times larger than the first. therefore, the height is also 5 times larger

4 x 5=20
