Question 611167: I have a guestion about pythagrean Therean
If two triangle are similar they are booth right triangles but are very different in size one is much bigger what can the sides be in the form of pythagrean therum . Answer by josmiceli(19441) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The sides of the 2 triangles are proportional
Suppose you have a 3-4-5 right triangle
The bigger 3-4-5 triangle which is similar has
sides 3k-4k-5k where k is a positive number
greater than 1.
The pythagorean formula for the larger triangle is:
So, the Pythagorean formula gets multiplied by when the larger triangle's sides are times larger.
