As I mentioned earlier : Shortest side is always the perpendicular ...
Here the perpendicular is 7.2
And longest side is hypotenuse. Here the hypotenuse is 16.8
mathslover (mathslover):
So you get : \(\cfrac{\textbf{Shortest Side}}{\textbf{Longest Side}} = ?\)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
0.4285...

So the shortest side is the perpendicular. Huh.|dw:1371869605513:dw|
mathslover (mathslover):
No, you have to write it as simplified fraction
mathslover (mathslover):
Here .. @ParthKohli , I was talking of this case.

7.2 / 16.8
\(\cfrac{72}{168} \)
mathslover (mathslover):
there is 2 as the common factor.
You get : (72/2)/(168/2) = 36/84
Again divide both numerator and denominator by 2
OpenStudy (anonymous):
18/42
OpenStudy (anonymous):
9/21
mathslover (mathslover):
Now divide by 3... as 9 has factor of 3 and 21 has also factor of 3
