Figures A and b are similar. Figure A has an area of 18 square feet. Figure b has an area of 98 square feet and one of the sides lengths is 14 feet find the corresponding side length

6 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of the square of the sides of two similar figures = the ratio of their area

Let x represent the missing side corresponding side length

Therefore,

Area of figure B/area of figure A = square of side length of figure B/square of the side length of figure A

Thus:

98/18 = 14²/x²

98/18 = 196/x²

Cross multiply

98*x² = 196*18

98x² = 3,528

Divide both sides by 98

x² = 3,528/98

x² = 36

x = √36

x = 6

Therefore, missing corresponding side length = 6 ft
