Answer:
not similar; corresponding sides are not proportional
Step-by-step explanation:
If the triangles were similar, corresponding sides would be proportional. That is, you would have ...
AX/AB = AY/AC
Here, those ratios are ...
6/24 ≠ 10/35
so, the corresponding sides are not proportional, and the triangles are not similar.
Using the law of sines to solve the triangle if..
The 2 angles form a linear pair and angles that form a linear pair have a sum of 180 so
10x + 15 + 5x = 180
15 + 15x = 180
180 - 15 = 15x
165 = 15x
11 = x
P: Parenthesis
E: Equation
M:Multiplication
D: Division
A : addition
S: Subtraction
So first you need to divide because it is before so you divide 18 by 6 which is 3 then you subtract (31 - 3) which gives you 28
answer : 28
