Answer:

Perimeters = 3 in : 7 in

Areas = 9 in² : 49 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

If the figures are squares, and the measurements are the length of that sides (as you have said), then we will do the following.

[The left square]

P = 4a

P = 4(15)

P = 60 in

A = a²

A = 15²

A = 225 in²

[The right square]

P = 4a

P = 4(35)

P = 140 in

A = a²

A = (35)²

A = 1,225 in²

[Simplifying ratios]

Perimeters = 60 in : 140 in

Perimeters = 6 in : 14 in

Perimeters = 3 in : 7 in

Areas = 225 in² : 1,225 in²

Areas = 45 in² : 245 in²

Areas = 9 in² : 49 in²

If triangle abc is similar to triangle edc find the value of x

svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

x = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangles are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

$\frac{BC}{DC}$ = $\frac{AC}{EC}$ , substitute values

$\frac{3x-5}{32}$ = $\frac{5x-5}{56}$ ( cross- multiply )

56(3x - 5) = 32(5x - 5) ← distribute and simplify both sides

168x - 280 = 160x - 160 ( subtract 160x from both sides )

8x - 280 = - 160 ( add 280 to both sides )

8x = 120 ( divide both sides by 8 )

x = 15
