Question

Find the missing side length of S

Answer 1

Answer:

s=12

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we know that triangle ABC is similar to XYZ, we know that the side lengths will be proportional to one another. As such, we should take a ratio to determine the side length of s.

$\frac{XY}{AB}=\frac{XZ}{AC}\\\\\frac{9}{6} =\frac{s}{8}\\\frac{8*9}{6} =s\\s=72/6=12\\s=12$
