In the right △abc, ch is the altitude to the hypotenuse (h∈ ab ). find the ratio of ah: hb, if m∠bac=30°.

In a 30°-60°-90° triangle, the hypotenuse is twice the length of the short leg. Here, it is convenient to assign segment BH the length of 1.

BH is the short leg of ∆BCH, so BC will have length 2.

BC is the short leg of ∆BAC, so BA will have length 4.

Now, we have

... (AH + HB) : HB = 4 : 1

So the ratio we want is ...

... AH : HB = 3 : 1

2/4 is the answer

step-by-step explanation:

x= total pieces

both ate 9 pieces

mindy ate 3 so troy ate 6

6= (1/4)x

x =24
