Social studies Geometry P.11 Similarity and altitudes in right triangles CEZ You have priz If SU = 28 and UV = 6, what is TU? T s V U Write your answer as a whole number or as a decimal rounded to the nearest hundredth. TU = Submit JUN E

Answer:
TU ≈ 12.96
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the Altitude on Hypotenuse theorem
(leg of outer triangle)² = (part of hypotenuse below it) × (whole hypotenuse)
TU² = UV × SU = 6 × 28 = 168 ( take square root of both sides )
TU = [tex]\sqrt{168}[/tex] ≈ 12.96 ( to the nearest hundredth )
