8­1 Geometric Mean

Learning Targets:I can find the geometric mean between two numbersI can solve problems involving relationships between parts of a right 

          triangle and the altitude to its hypotenuse

What is one possible problem when taking a picture of a very tall object?

At what vertical viewing angle should the camera be set to use the geometric mean to photograph an object?

What measure do you need when using the geometric mean to photograph a very tall object?

Geometric mean: when the means of a proportion are the same number. It is the positive square root of the product of the extremes.

When an altitude is drawn in a right triangle from the right angle vertex, a special relationship happens with the two new triangles.

Example 4:

9. Mrs. Alspach is making a kite for her son. She has two support rods so that they are perpendicular. The shorter rod is 27 inches long. If she places the short rod 7.25 inches from one end of the long rod in order to form two right angles with the kite fabric, what is the length of the long rod?
