Question
- refer to the figure to complete the proportion.
\\(\frac{r}{h}=\frac{?}{s}\\)
Step1: Recall similar - triangle properties
In a right - triangle with altitude \(h\) drawn to the hypotenuse \(c\), we have the following proportion relationships. The two smaller right - triangles formed are similar to the large right - triangle and to each other. The proportion \(\frac{r}{h}=\frac{h}{s}\) is based on the similarity of the triangles.
