Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Two triangles have their angles measuring 45°, 45°, and 90°. Triangle XYZ has a hypotenuse of 10 cm. If triangle ABC has a hypotenuse of 5 cm, assess if they are similar and reason out your answer.

💡 Hint: Evaluate the angles and subsequently the ratios.

Challenge 2 Hard

If triangle DEF has sides measuring 20 cm, 15 cm, and 25 cm, and triangle GHI is similar to triangle DEF with one side measuring 10 cm, find the lengths of the other two sides.

💡 Hint: Use the side ratios to find the remaining sides in triangle GHI.
