OpenStudy (anonymous):

c i think so

OpenStudy (anonymous):

am i right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i dont know...i dont know how to solve these types of problems...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i can teach you ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

see both triangles in both <l is common and both have right angle

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so both triangles are similar by co similarity and then use this theoram

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ratio of areas of two similar trangles is equal to ratio of square of their corresponding sides

OpenStudy (anonymous):

c^2=a^2 + b^2 theoram?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then you see this (10)^2/(25)^2=30/area of triangle lrn

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then solve it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you get hoe i solve this problem

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so 10^2/25^2=0.16 then i divide it by 30?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do i divede 0.16 by 30?
