Question

1. bridges the triangles below are similar. how long is the rope bridge? 49.5 ft 12 ft rope bridge 18 ft

Explanation:

Step1: Set up proportion for similar triangles

Let $x$ = length of rope bridge.
$\frac{x}{12} = \frac{49.5}{18}$

Step2: Solve for $x$ (cross-multiply)

$18x = 49.5 \times 12$
$18x = 594$

Step3: Isolate $x$ (divide both sides)

$x = \frac{594}{18}$

Answer:

33 ft
