Similar Triangles: Calculate Length FE Using 8y and 7m Measurements

Let's look at the order of letters of the triangles that match each other and see the ratio of the sides.

We will write accordingly:

Triangle ABC is similar to triangle DFE

The order of similarity ratio will be:

$\frac{AB}{DF}=\frac{BC}{FE}=\frac{AC}{DE}$

Now let's insert the existing data we have in the diagram:

$\frac{8y}{9y}=\frac{7m}{FE}$

Let's reduce y and we get:

$\frac{8}{9}FE=7m$

$FE=\frac{9}{8}\times7m$

$FE=7\frac{7}{8}m$
