The triangles are similar, what is the value of x?

Mathematics

Since the triangles are similar, we can use ratios to find what x equals. 

Ratios:
3x+8/4 = 25/5

The easiest way to solve ratios, in my opinion is to cross multiply. 

3x+8*5 = 4*25. Simplify to get 15x + 40 = 100.

Subtract 40 on both sides. 15x = 60.

Divide 15 on both sides. x = 4.

CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

167.2 m/sec

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert 602 km/hr to m/sec, as follows:

602 km       1000 m

------------ * ----------------- = 602,000 m/hr

    hr               1 km

Recall that 1 hr = 3600 sec.  Convert 602,000 m/hr to m/sec:

602,000 m          1 hr

------------------ * ---------------- = 167.2 m/sec

     1 hr              3600 sec

Which must be true in order for the relationship △ZYV ~ △XWV to be correct?
tigry1 [53]

Hey there!

In order for two figures to be congruent, each named angle must correspond and be congruent to ONE other angle. If you have ZYV and XWV, Z must be congruent to X as they both show up first in the ordering.

This means...

∠Z≅∠X

∠Y≅∠W

∠V≅∠V

Our first answer option has to do with parallelism, which does not influence if certain angles are congruent or not.

For the second answer option, ∠Z is congruent to ∠X, not ∠Y, so it is incorrect.

For the third answer option, it shows that ∠Z would correspond to ∠V, but it does not, so it is also incorrect.

For D, ∠Z IS congruent to ∠X, and ∠W IS congruent to ∠Y

Therefore, our answer is D) ∠Z≅∠X and  ∠W ≅ ∠Y.

I hope this helps!
