A right isosceles triangle has side lengths of 13.2, 13.2, and 18.6 meters. What is the hypotenuse of a similar triangle with legs 4.4 meters in length?(1 point)

Answer 1

To find the hypotenuse of the similar triangle with legs of 4.4 meters, let's first find the scale factor between the two triangles.

The scale factor is given by the ratio of the corresponding sides in the two triangles:
Scale factor = 18.6/13.2 = 1.409

Now, we can find the length of the hypotenuse in the similar triangle by multiplying the scale factor with the length of the hypotenuse in the original triangle:
Hypotenuse of similar triangle = 4.4 * 1.409 = 6.2156 meters

Therefore, the hypotenuse of the similar triangle with legs of 4.4 meters is approximately 6.22 meters.
