Question

The lengths of the sides of a triangle are 7. and 10. If the length of the longest side of a similar triangle is 25. what is the length of the shortest side of this triangle?

Answer 1

Answer: 17.5

Explanation:

7:10 = x:25

times both sides by 25

25(7/10) =x

than solve for x

X = 25 × (7/10)

X = 17.5
