Model F: A farmer has a triangular plot of land available within his area. He intends to use it to build a lake, which should be square in shape (with side ????). The following figure illustrates the situation: Triangle ABC represents the land, with base AB measuring 35 m and the corresponding height equal to 15 m; square DEFG represents the future lake. Knowing that DE is part of AB and that the vertices F and G of the square belong, respectively, to the sides BC and CA of the triangle, the measure ???? of the sides of the lake must be equal to: Ⓐ 10 m Ⓑ 10.5 m Ⓒ 12 m Ⓓ 20 m Ⓔ 26.25 m 00:00 Reading the Statement and Interpreting the Question 03:00 Solving the Similarity of Triangles 06:00 Like, Comment and Share 06:45 End #espcex #espcexpreviousexams #mathematics #solvedquestion #commentedquestion #competition #military #planegeometry #similarity
