Kaitlyn runs on a triangular track in a local park. On Saturday, she runs one lap around track BAC. The length of each path on this track is shown in meters (m) in the diagram below. If track DEF is similar in shape to track BAC, how many meters, rounded to the nearest tenth, would Violet run in one lap on track BAC? Type the numeric answer only in the box below. Numerical Answers Expected! Answer for Blank 1:
@theyatin @Calcmathlete
its again side side side you see ab/de=ac/fe=bc/df find ech side of larger track using this formula then add all three sides of larger track to find answer
ok i'll try
169 and 18??
nope the other two sides of larger track are 18 and 26 check how you did it again see ab/de=22/11=2 ac/fe=2=> ac=fe*2=9*2=18 bc/df=2 => bc=2*df=13*2=26 now add ab+bc+ca=perimeter of track and your answer
269 right??
is 22+26+18=.... you are not supposed to calculate area just perimeter. . .
ok ty
