7. 3/5 = 4.5/x
3x= 5(4.5)
x = 15/2
8. 6/4 = 9/x
6x= 45
x= 15/2
8. since triangle ABC and ADE are identical,
angle E is also 30 degrees
so angle D = 180-(30+70)=80 degrees
9. 9/3 = x/5
3x = 45
x = 45/3 = 15
You forgot to add in your height to your question. To find your area you need to do 8 + 14 and get 22 then you nee to do the height divided by two. If you give me the height of the triangle I can tell you the area.
