Answer:

n = 35 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Blue Triangle

Longer side = 91

Shortest side = 39

Brown triangle

Longer side = x

Shortest side = 15 in

When you have two triangles that are similar you have to set up your proportion like this

brown long/brown shorter = blue longer / blue shorter

x/ 15 = 91/39         Multiply both sides by 15

x = 91 * 15/ 39      

x = 1365 /39

x = 35
