Question

Natalia constructed a right triangle with two side lengths measuring 3 and 5 units. She constructed a second right triangle similar to the first one, with the two corresponding sides measuring 5.1 and x units in length, respectively.

What is the missing length, x, of the second triangle?

Answer 1

(1.7) times 5, and get 8.5 hope i helped

Answer 2

to start, you would divide 5.1 by 3 to find the scale factor. then you simply multiply that number(1.7) times 5, and get 8.5
