The height of a trapezoid (h) measures 4 cm. Its shorter
base (b) measures 3 cm. A similar trapezoid has a
shorter base measuring 15 cm. Use proportional
reasoning to find the height of that similar trapezoid.
if two trapezoids are the same proportions, and one is 3cm, and the other is 15, the makes that second 5 times larger than the first. therefore, the height is also 5 times larger
