Question 9 of 10
10 points
a triangle drawn on a map has sides that measure 15 cm, 8 cm, and 10 cm. the shortest of the corresponding real-life distances is 127 km. find the longest of the real-life distances.

The longest of the real-life distances is 238.125 km

Step-by-step explanation:

The shortest side of triangle is 8cm

The longest side = 15cm

Now set up a proportion:

8/127 = 15/x

By cross multiplication we get,

8*x = 15*127

8x = 1,905

Divide both sides by 8

8x = 1,905/8

x = 238.125 km

The longest of the real-life distances is 238.125 km

if you mean

then it's c. 8, -7/3

but if you mean

then it is

21

jk it's 20
