Answer:

NW = 15.6 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

If ΔLMN ~ ΔNWR then:

\sf LN : LM = RN : RW

\implies \sf \dfrac{LN}{LM}=\dfrac{RN}{RW}

\implies \sf \dfrac{10}{24}=\dfrac{6}{RW}

\implies \sf 10RW=6 \cdot 24

\implies \sf RW = 14.4\:cm

Find NW by using Pythagoras' Theorem:

a^2+b^2=c^2

(where a and b are the legs, and c is the hypotenuse, of a right triangle)

Given:

  • a = RN = 6 cm
  • b = RW = 14.4 cm
  • c = NW

Substituting the given values into the formula and solving for NW:

\implies \sf 6^2+14.4^2=NW^2

\implies \sf NW^2=243.36

\implies \sf NW=\sqrt{243.36}

\implies \sf NW=15.6\:cm

Find RW then use Pythagorean theorem

  • ML/LN=RW/NR
  • 24/10=RW/6
  • 12/5=RW/6
  • 5RW=72
  • RW=14.4

So

  • NW²=RW²+NR²=6²+14.4²=36+201.6=237.6
  • NW=√237.6
  • NW=15.5cm

Arisa [49]
I maybe wrong, but I think it is 14

Simplify both sides of the equation
(Do distributive property)
Add 6v to both sides
Subtract 67 from both sides
Divide both sides by -1
