Refer to the diagram below. Surveyors know that ΔPQR and ΔSTR are similar. What is PQ, the distance across the lake?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
It is similar

A 6-ft adult has a shadow 3.6 ft long. How long is the shadow of a 5-ft child standing next to the adult?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Do you understand the last two?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
some what still need help
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Ok so because 1.25 times 1.8 = the 2.25 of the other side on the other triangle , 1.8 times the base of the first triangle 1.8 = the base side of the other triangle
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Sorry I suck at explaining stuff

how u find it is it like the other two
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Ok if you don't have it in sight yet , open up the link for the triangles in a second tab
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Triangle RST is congruent to PQR
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Like, triangle PQR is jsut a bigger version
OpenStudy (anonymous):
So because if you look at it, The side 1.25 is the same side as the 2.25 on the other triangle

The purpose of this question is to find PQ and to do so you must figure out how much bigger the second triangle is
OpenStudy (anonymous):
To figure this out you can divide 2.25 by 1.25 to see what number was used to get the bigger triangle which ends up being 1.8
