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

Gwar [14]

draw a perpendicular line from the directrix passing through the focus, this will be the line of symmetry. The vertex(h, k) will be located on the line half way between the focus and directrix. The distance from the focus to the vertex is called the focal length, call it a. The then equation is (x - h)^2 = 4a(y - k) the equation can be manipulated to y = 1/4a(x - h)^2 + k hope it helps

I need to know how to solve this
ahrayia [7]
Answer:

To find angle y you subtract the two angles form 180 degrees because it is a straight line. Then you subtract angle y and 72 from 180 because a triangle adds up to 180 degrees and you get angle x.

Hope this helps, ask if you have any more questions!
