The Right Triangles

[mousehunt]

Thank you for helping.

The altitude drawn to the hypotenuse of a right triangle divides the ypoteuse into segments such that their lengths are in the ratio 1:4. If the length of the altitude is 8 find the length of:
(A) Each segment of the hypotenuse.
(B) The longer leg of the triangle.

\(\displaystyle Can \ you \ take \ it \ from \ here?\)

\(\displaystyle Hint: \ The \ altitude \ (8) \ divides \ the \ big \ triangle \ into \ three \ similiar \ triangles.\)
