GPT 3.5
To find the missing side length of triangle B, we can use the similar triangles property.

Similar triangles have proportional side lengths.

The given triangle 1 has side lengths of 11.4 inches and 18 inches.

So, if triangle B is similar to triangle 1, the corresponding side lengths of triangle B would be proportional.

Let x be the missing side length of triangle B.

Then, we can set up the proportion:

11.4/18 = x/23.4

To solve for x, we can cross-multiply:

11.4 * 23.4 = 18 * x

266.76 = 18x

Divide both sides by 18:

x = 14.82

Therefore, the missing side length of triangle B is approximately 14.82 inches.
