Driving down a mountain, Bob Dean finds that he descends 5500feet in elevation by the time he is 3.6 miles (horizontally) away from the high point on the mountain road. Find the slope of his descent. (1 mile = 5280 feet). The slope is nothing. (Type an integer or decimal rounded to two decimal places as needed.)

i dont know i just need points

step-by-step explanation:

similar triangles are triangles which have the same shape but not the same size. this means their angle measures are equal but their side lengths are not instead they are proportional. to solve, we will set up a proportion and solve.

a proportion is two equal ratios set equal to each other. we form the ratios by finding corresponding sides (sides which match to each other on both triangles by their position). out ratios will be one side of the small triangle over the corresponding side on the big triangle as shown below:

.

to solve the proportion, we'll cross multiply by multiplying numerator with denominator across the equal sign.
