- Double sides
If each side of a triangle is doubled then find the ratio of the area of new triangle thus formed and the given triangle. - 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? - Mast angles and height
Calculate the height of the mast, whose foot can be seen at a depth angle of 11° and the top at a height angle of 28°. The mast is observed from a position 10 m above the level of the base of the mast. - Determine 82470

Calculate the perimeter of triangle ABC if you know that it is similar to triangle EFG in which e=144 mm, f=164 mm, g=92 mm, and the similarity ratio is 4. Express the result in cm. - Calculate 80741
In the camp, the children made a mock-up of the campsite. In its center was a maple, which had a height of 28 cm on the model. Calculate the height of the maple in the campsite if, in the morning, it casts a shadow 14 m long and its model has a shadow 49
- Nicolette
Nicolette makes a small bead bracelet using five red, eight purple, and six green beads. A large necklace has the same ratio of beads as a small bracelet. If the large necklace requires 15 red beads, how many purple beads are needed to make a large bracel - Figure 2
Figure A maps to figure B with a scale factor of 0.75. The length of the line AB segment in figure A is 10. What is its length on the image in figure B? - Shadow 73354
