4. similar triangles
so 14 is to 8 as FM is to 9......ratio:
14/8 = FM/9 so FM = 14/8 * 9 = 15.75 feet
Now for the other side
14/8 =HM/12 HM = 14/8 * 12 =21 feet
Total = 14 + 15.75 +21 = 50.75 ft
5. Use pythagoream theorem to find the diagonal then take 1/2
BD^2 = 8^2 + 14^2 = 260
BD= 16.125 1/2 BD = BE = 8.062 ft
6. I THINK 40 is to 85 as (40+48) is to (?+85)
as a ratio: 40/85 = (40+48) / (?+85) solve for ?
(?+85) = (40+48) / (40/85)
?+85 = 187
? =102
