Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
If triangles EFG and QRS are similar
then
the scale factor is equal to the measure of the smallest side of triangle QRS divided by the smallest side of triangle EFG
so
Let
x-------> the smallest side of triangle QRS
y-------> the smallest side of triangle EFG
z-------> the scale factor
we have
substitute the values
Find the length of the longest side of QRS
The length of the longest side of QRS is equal to multiply the scale factor by the length of the longest side of EFG
so
Answer:
g=12
Step-by-step explanation:
4(2y)=24
8y=24
y=3
Since we know the value of y we substitude
36=3g
g=12
