What is the ratio of the perimeter of the smaller triangle to the perimeter of the lager triangle?

the ratio of the perimeter of triangle ABC to the perimeter of triangle JKL is 2:1. what is the perimeter of triangle JKL?


Is a smaller triangle inside of a larger triangle where the outside of the smaller triangle and the inside of the larger triangle is the interior a polygon?

If at least one vertex of the inner triangle lies on the side of the outer triangle then yes, it is a complex polygon. However, if none of the vertices of the inner triangle are on the sides of the outer triangle then there are two disjoint triangles and that does not represent a polygon.


What 4 identical shapes make a triangle?

Oh, isn't that a happy little question! Four identical shapes that make a triangle are three smaller triangles and one larger triangle. When you arrange them just right, they come together to create a beautiful triangle shape. Just remember, there are no mistakes, only happy little accidents in art and geometry.


How do you find a scale factor from the smaller figure to the enlarged figure?

Look for corresponding parts of the two figures. Their ratio is the scale factor. For example, if you have two similar triangles, one has a side of length 3, and the corresponding side on the other triangle is 5, then the scale factor is 5/3 going from the small triangle to the big, or 3/5 going from the big triangle to the small.


How many triangles does a cone have?

A cone has infinitely many triangles. Each cross-section of a cone, when cut parallel to its base, forms a triangle. As the cone tapers to a point, the triangles formed by the cross-sections become increasingly smaller and numerous. Therefore, a cone can be said to have an infinite number of triangles.

Triangles hij and mno are similar the perimeter of smaller triangle hij is 44 the lengths of two corresponding sides on the triangles are 13 and 26 what is the perimeter of mno?

Let the perimeter of the triangle MNO be x.Since the perimeters of similar polygons have the same ratio as any two corresponding sides, we have13/26 = 44/x (cross multiply)13x =1,144 (divide both sides by 13)x = 88Or since 13/26 = 1/2, the perimeter of the triangle MNO is twice the perimeter of the triangle HIJ, which is 88.


Why does the obtuse triangles has the smaller perimeter than other triangles?

They don't always- they don't always 'has' a smaller perimeter than other triangles. A triangle can be absolutely any size as long as it has three sides and angles that add to 180 degrees


What fractal is created when each triangle has an upside-down similar triangle removed from its middle which creates three smaller triangles similar to the original?

This is known as the Sierpinski triangle.

How do you make a triangle with 2 triangles and 1 rectangle?

If the 2 triangles are right triangles, which are congruent to slicing the rectangle on the diagonal, then arrange one on top of the rectangle, and the other to the side, so that the two hypotenuses are in line with each other. This will make a bigger right triangle, which is similar to the smaller right triangles - each side is double of the smaller triangles.


Two equilateral triangles differ in their side lengths by 105m The perimeter of the larger triangle is 983m Determine the side length of the smaller triangle by representing it like an equation?

Let the sides of the smaller triangle be x:- x = (983/3)-105 x = 222 and 2/3 meters or 222.666 .... recurring


Can you get a big equilateral triangle and put 6 smaller equilateral triangles in it?

No.


Similar triangles can be made into congruent triangles by doing what?

Increasing the dimensions of the smaller of the similar triangles (if they are not already congruent) by a suitably chosen constant factor.


How do you make a squair with three triangles?

You can make a square with 3 right angle triangles The smaller triangles will be halve the size of the larger triangle


Is there an SAS postulate for similarity of two triangles also just as you have one for congruency of triangles?

YesFor two triangles to be congruent, their corresponding sides must be of equal length. But for triangles to be similar, they must only have equal angles. For there to be a SAS postulate for similarity, the two corresponding sides would have to be proportionate, not equal. If they were equal, the triangles would be congruent.So, an SAS postulate for similar triangles would mean that two of the sides of the smaller triangle are, for example, half the two corresponding sides of the other triangle. If also the corresponding included angles are equal, then the two triangles would be similar triangles.APEX: similar
