If the area of a rectangle is 162 square meters, what is the length of the base

If the long side is down then the length of the base is 81 sq.m.

If the short side is down then the length of the base is 20.25 sq.m.

Step-by-step explanation:

162/4 is 40.5 that means if this were a square it would be 40.5 sq.m. On each side, if the base is longer you multiply 40.5 by 2 (or whatever youre supposed to honestl) and if the base is shorter you divide by 2 (or whatever you were supposed to)

step-by-step explanation:

similar triangles are triangles which have the same shape but not the same size. this means their angle measures are equal but their side lengths are not instead they are proportional. to solve, we will set up a proportion and solve.

a proportion is two equal ratios set equal to each other. we form the ratios by finding corresponding sides (sides which match to each other on both triangles by their position). out ratios will be one side of the small triangle over the corresponding side on the big triangle as shown below:

.

to solve the proportion, we'll cross multiply by multiplying numerator with denominator across the equal sign.
