You can put this solution on YOUR website! The ratio of the segments into which the altitude the to the hypotenuse of a right triangle divides the hypotenuse is 9 : 4.
What is the length of the altitude?
:
Cannot be determined, the ratio will help you solve the angles, but will not give the actual lengths of the sides
