Arnold had three pieces of different colored strings that are all the same length. arnold cut the blue string into 2 equal size lengths. he cut the red string into 3 equal size lengths and the green string into 6 equal size lengths. he needs to cut the strings so each color has the same number of equal size lengths. what is the least number of equal sized lengths each color string could have

d) by the cross product property, ab^2 = bc multiplied by ad

step-by-step explanation:

we are given

in the given triangle abc

angle a is 90° and segment ad is perpendicular to segment bc

we can see that

triangle(abc) and triangle(abd) are similar because they have common side and same angle (90 degree)

so, triangles(abc) and abd are similar

since, they are similar

so, the ratio of their sides must be equal

we get

now, we can cross multiply

and we get

so, this could be step to prove it
