OpenStudy (amistre64):

id presume it is for the picture ...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Awesome. Here's how we do it: Divide the biggest side of one triangle by the biggest side on the other.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So what's th biggest side on the left triangle? And the biggest on the right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

6.81 and 4.54

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Perfect. Divide them And tell me your answer.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Feel free to use a calculator.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1.5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Here it is: 3.83 / 2.56 = 1.496 (1.5) 6.72 / 4.48 = 1.5 6.81 / 4.54 = 1.5 Then, since they all have the same ratio, the two triangles are similar.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well, dana beat us to the next two steps.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You were going to divide the second biggest sides on each triangle, and then the smallest sides.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What I did is just putting the answer on a silver dish. I know that people above know the answer and they explained. Are you angry of me?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Nah, not at all. I'm glad you explained it at least. Most folks would just say "Yes. They're the same." and leave. :P

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh, thanks! ^_^

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No problemo. :P
