Triangle NTE is similar to Triangle KLA. If LA=8, EN=125, and AK=5, what is the length of TE?

Answer 1

By similarity, we have:

NT/KA = TE/LA

Since Triangle NTE is similar to Triangle KLA, we know that NT/KA = TE/LA. Plugging in the given lengths, we have NT/5 = TE/8.

To solve for TE, we can cross-multiply:

8 * NT = 5 * TE

Dividing both sides by 5, we have:

(8 * NT)/5 = TE

To find TE, we need to know the length of NT. However, we are not given this information in the given problem.
