Answer:
This question answer is attached in the attachment,
Step-by-step explanation:
Yes - they have to be similar. Since they are using the same line as the hypotenuse, the ratio of the other two sides are in the same ratio (ie, the slope of the line), the 3 inner angles will be the same. Thus, the triangles will be similar.
34.5=4h+7c
(34.5-7c)/4=h
Put h= (34.5-7c)/4 into another equation
30.5=8h+3c
30.5=2(34.5-7c)+3c
30.5=69-14c+3c
11c=38.5
c=38.5/11
Put c=38.5/11 into one of the equations
to calculate the h.
