Yes, you are correct.

From the image, we can see 3 triangles, the large triangle and the two triangles that make the larger triangle.

All 3 of these triangles are similar since they're angle measurements are the same (can be proven by geometry).

We can gather the following information from the given information.

  • The largest triangle (the one made up of two triangles) has a hypotenuse of 3+9=12, and a leg length of x. The hypotenuse to leg ratio is 12/x
  • The second largest triangle has a hypotenuse length x and leg length 9. The hypotenuse to leg ratio is x/9

We know the hypotenuse to corresponding leg ratio must be equal since these two triangles are similar. Thus, we have the equation:

12/x = x/9

Using the cross product property gives us:

x² = 9 × 12

x² = 108

Taking the square root of both sides gives us:

x = √108

= 6 √3

Thus, your answer is correct. Great job!

Let me know if you need any clarifications, thanks!

Answer:

63 degrees and 27 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Complementary angles are when two angles add to 90 degrees.

So, we can check if these pairs add up to 90 degrees.

45 + 95 = 140

38 + 42 = 80

30 + 51 = 81

63 + 27 = 90

The only pair of angles that are complementary is 63 degrees and 27 degrees.

2+a / 2 = 4 and b+6 /2 = 10

2+a=8. and. b+6 = 20
a=6. and. b=14

(a,b) , the other endpoint, is thus (6,14)
