- The areas
The areas of two similar triangles are 12 sq cm and 48 sq cm. If the height of the smaller one is 2.1 cm, then find the height of the bigger one. - The angles 6
If the angles of a triangle are in the ratio 2 : 3: 4. Find the value of each angle. - Double sides
If each side of a triangle is doubled, then find the ratio of the area of the new triangle thus formed to the given triangle. - A cone 4
A cone with a radius of 10 cm is divided into two parts by drawing a plane through the midpoint of its axis parallel to its base. Compare the volumes of the two parts.
- Two similar 2
Two similar polygons have corresponding sides 15 inches and 6 inches. If the area of the first is 2700 square inches, what is the area of the second? - Scale model
In a model train set, 1.38 inches represents one foot in real life. The height of One World Trade Center in New York City is 1776 feet. How tall would a scale model of the building be? Should you calculate 1776 x 1.38 or 1776 ÷ 1.38? - Triangles 83634 We have similar triangles ABC with angle CAB=45° and angle ACB= 30° and a similar triangle OPN.
