Two right triangles are similar. the legs of one of the triangles are 5 and 12. the second right triangle has a hypotenuse with a length of 39. what is the scale factor between the two triangles?

a. 4: 3
b. 1: 3
c. 2: 6
d. 1: 2

b. 1:3

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the hypotenuse of the first triangle, use a^2 + b^2 = c^2

c = sqrt (5^2 + 12^2)

c = 13

From here, since they are similar, you can set up a proportion

13:39

1:3

step-by-step explanation:

when a number is between two straight lines it means the absolute value.

to find absolute value you need to know how many numbers is that number away from 0.

when finding absolute value the number will always come out positive

so absolute value of -3 is 3

absolute value of 3/2 is 3/2

absolute value of -2 is 2

absolute value of 3.5 is 3.5

absolute value of -1 is 1

now put these numbers in order:

a)   |-1|, |3/2|, |-2|, |-3|, |3.5|
