Jenna has just completed a unit on triangles in her math class. She decides to determine the height of
a hill near her house using her new mathematical knowledge. She cannot measure the height directly.
so she makes the measurements shown in the diagram. How can she use these measurements to
determine the height of the hill?
12 feet
44 feet -
116 feet
O Since the triangles are congruent, Jenna knows that the ratio of the lengths of their sides is constant (equal).
O She can use the Pythagorean theorem to determine the height of the hill.
O Since the horizontal side of the larger triangle increased by 116 ft., Jenna knows that the vertical side of the larger triangle must increase by that much as well.
Since the triangles are similar, Jenna knows that the ratio of the lengths of their sides is constant (equal).

Polygon with three sides, three angles, and three vertices. Based on the properties of each side, the types of triangles are scalene (triangle with three three different lengths and three different angles), isosceles (angle with two equal sides and two equal angles), and equilateral (three equal sides and three angles of 60°). The types of angles are acute (less than 90°); obtuse (greater than 90°); and right (90°).
