Given that triangles MON and POQ are similar triangles, the length of PO is 30 units.

<h3>What are Similar Triangles?</h3>

The triangles that are similar to each other will have their corresponding sides proportional to each other.

Given:

MP = 25

PQ = 18

MN = 33

Triangles MON and POQ are similar triangles.

Let PO = x

Therefore:

MN/PQ = MO/PO

Substitute

33/18 = (25 + x)/x

Cross multiply

33x = 18(25 + x)

33x = 450 + 18x

33x - 18x = 450

15x = 450

x = 30

Therefore, given that triangles MON and POQ are similar triangles, the length of PO is 30 units.

What is the measure of angle x? m&lt;x = ?
Ainat [17]
Hey there! :)

The total measure for triangles is 180°

You already know 2 angles. Add both angles and subtract from 180 to find x

37 + 82 = 119

180 - 119 = 61

m∠x = 61°

Hope this helps :)

I need help solving this problem with proofs if at all possible
k0ka [10]

I don't really like these algebra problems which pretend to be geometry.

The bisector makes two equal angles, so

x/2 + 17 = x - 33

50 = (1/2) x

x = 100

That means ABC = 100/2 + 17 = 67 degrees

CBD = 100 - 33 = 67 degrees, equal so that checks

We're asked for ABC which is 67 + 67 = 134 degrees

Answer: 134°
