Name: Block: Dale: CW #17: Angles and Steepness Let's solve problems about right triangles. 1) Ratios Galore AABC is similar to ADEF. Write as many equations as you can to describe the relationships between the sides and angles of 2 triangles. 2) Can you calculate? Find the values of x, y, and z. If there is not enough information, what else do you need to know? 3 50 3) A ramp with a length to height ratio of 12:1 forms a right triangle with a 4.8" angle. a) What is the angle measurement if the base is only 6 units long and the height is 1 unit tall? Explain your answer. b) When the length is half as long does that make the angle half as big? Explain. c) What is the angle measurement if the base is 6 units long and the height is increased to 2 units tall? How do you know? d) When the height is twice as tall does that make the angle twice as big
