Problem: two spherical balls lie on the ground touching . if one of the balls has a radius of 8 cm , and the point of contact is 12 cm above the ground , what is the radius of the other ball ( in centimeters ) ?
Rationale: "a straight line will join the two centers and the point of contact , thus making similar triangles . 4 / 8 = ( r - 12 ) / r 4 r = 8 r - 96 r = 24 the answer is b ."
