Thats actually the wrong answer.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
That is why I posted it on here.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I don't need to show you my work. wth?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
You show me how I did it wrong

In similar triangles, corresponding sides are in equal ratio
Here the hypotenuse of the big triangle vs hypotenuse of small triangle is 25/15
OpenStudy (anonymous):
So I simplify 25/15?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
No, now considering the perpendiculars, a and 9 should equal the same ratio 25/15
so we write them equal
a 25
----- = ------
9 15
multiply both sides by 9 and simplify on right side
a = 15
OpenStudy (anonymous):
And for b?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
similarly,
b 25
----- = ------
12 15
multiply both sides by 12
b=20

I have next one also buddy
OpenStudy (anonymous):
OpenStudy (anonymous):
should be 330 degree as they are congruent triangles and C <--> C'
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Thats the wrong answer buddy
OpenStudy (anonymous):
sorry i meant 33 degree

This one too paaji
OpenStudy (anonymous):
This one u shud b able to solve using Pythagoras theorem
(Hypotenuse)^2 = sam of squares of other two sides
OpenStudy (anonymous):
So a2 plus b2= c2
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Yes,
which translates to
17^2 = 8^2 + a^2 because the longest side is hypotenuse

So what would be the accurate answer?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
17^2 - 8^2 = a^2
Calculate the left side first.....say u get X
then a = squareroot of X
OpenStudy (anonymous):
left side 34
OpenStudy (anonymous):
17 x 2
OpenStudy (anonymous):
right side is 16
