triangle proportionality theorem 2/8 = CE/4 solve for CE
yes
Okay, strangest thing. I complete forgot how to solve with letters ad the denominator
you just have to cross multiply
|dw:1515681778734:dw|
|dw:1515681783670:dw|
multiplying across the diagonals gives us 8*CE = 4*2 solve for CE
8/8?
Or CE/8?
8*CE = 4*2 dividing both sides by 8 gives us CE = 4*2/8 = 8/8 = 1 = your answer
Ohhh
Can you help me with 4 more?
sure
triangle proportionality theorem (would recommend writing this down), this rule applies for all triangles set up this way |dw:1515682084675:dw|
|dw:1515682090174:dw|
|dw:1515682133294:dw|
9/1.5?
therefore: |dw:1515682170822:dw|
12/3?
12/2
yup, well done, those are the answers 9/1.5 = 12/2
last one needs to be parallel b/c 2/8 = 3/12 which agrees with the proportionality theorem
others are fine
http://prntscr.com/hz0y24 I tried to see if I can set it up correctly myself. May be wrong
hypotenuse/leg = hypotenuse/leg
AD is the left leg 4.5 and 5 are the hypotenuses 4 is the right leg so 4.5/AD = 5/4 solve for AD
18/5
good, and as a decimal that's 3.6 = your answer
going to ask for some help w/ this one @sillybilly123 is there a way I can do this w/o using law of cosines?
XD
6.5/8?
