The width of the rectangle would be 6 times the first rectangle and the length would be 8 times the first rectangle.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Given:
Two rectangles are proportional.
Length and width of 1 rectangle = 6 : 8
Dimensions of the other rectangle = ?
Let length and width of the other rectangle be x : y
According to the question:
So, the width of the rectangle would be 6 times the first rectangle and the length would be 8 times the first rectangle.
We know that
scale factor=measure larger triangle/measure smaller triangle---->18/12
scale factor=1.5
so
measure larger triangle=scale factor*measure smaller triangle
for the leg in the smaller triangle equal to 5
measure larger triangle=1.5*5-----> 7.5
the answer is
7.5
