The relationship between a distance x in a garden and the corresponding distance y in a model of the garden is y = kx. A triangular path in the model has sides that measure 8
yards, 15 yards, and 17 yards. The side lengths of the actual path are 48 yards, 90 yards,
and 102 yards. What is the constant of proportionality?

Prove the converse of the pythagorean theorem using similar triangles. the converse of the pythagorean theorem states that when the sum of the squares of the lengths of the legs of the triangle equals the squares length of the hypotenuse, the triangle is a right triangle. be sure to create and name the appropriate geometric figures.
