I need the answer to a and b

Mathematics
1 answer:
erica [24]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

a. x = 7

b. x = 36/5

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Points to remember</u>

The ratio of of corresponding sides of similar triangles are equal.

<u>a). To find the value of x</u>

From the figure 1 we get two similar triangles, ΔABC and ADE

We can write,

AB/AD = AC/AE

3/6 = x/(x + 7)

3(x + 7) = 6 * x

3x + 21 = 6x

6x - 3x = 21

3x = 21

x = 21/3 = 7

<u>b). To find the value of x</u>

From the figure b we get

ΔABC ~  ΔEDF

AB/DE = BC/DF

4/5 = x/9

x = (4 * 9)/5 = 36/5

then

26×24.5

8. You are doing the same thing almost. Word problems are scary, but look for the numbers.

4inch ×8inch × 12inch

Find the volume
Multiply the volume by 3, that'd one answer
Devide the ORIGINAL volume by 2. don't divide the volume you multiplied by 3.
