The bottom answer is correct. I had some trouble with this so I had to find x and y in separate parts.
TO FIND X
notice that the top triangle and bottom triangles are similar, meaning if you multiple all three sides of one by a specific number, it becomes the same size as the bottom triangle.
17 x n = 8, therefore n=8/17
8 x n = X, therefore X=64/17
For some reason, this does not give a correct value for Y, so I had to use trig
TO FIND Y
Notice that the angle DAB is the same as DBC (lets call this angle Ø)
Using trig rule, we know that the cos of an angle is equal to the adjacent side divided by the hypotenuses.
We can now form some equations:
cosØ = 15/17 (from the top triangle)
cosØ = 8/Y (from bottom triangle)
Now we know that Y=(8x17)/15 = 136/15
X=64/15 Y=136/15

Step-by-step explanation:
If the radius of a circle is doubled, the area of the circle will be quadrupled and the circumference will also be doubled. This makes sense because the area of a circle is directly proportional to the square of the radius of the circle (if the radius of a circle is increased x times, its area will be increased to x^2 times the original area), whereas the circumference is proportional to the size of the radius (if the radius of a circle is increased x times, its circumference will increase x times).
