Answer:

QR = 6.8

XZ = 16.25

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use ratios to solve since the triangles are similar

7.2         QR

------- = ------------

18           17

Using cross products

7.2 *17 = QR*18

Divide by 18

7.2 *17/18 = QR*18/18

QR = 6.8

7.2          6.5

------- = ------------

18           XZ

Using cross products

7.2 XZ = 6.5*18

Divide by 7.2

7.2 XZ = 6.5*18/7.2

XZ = 16.25

Answer:

a) 16.25 centimeters

b) 6.8 centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

We can set up a proportion for both of these problems.

a) Look at the longest side of each triangle. We can set up a fraction: 7.2/18. We can also set up a fraction for XZ and PR:

6.5/x

x represents the length you're trying to find.

Since the triangles are similar, we have an equation:

7.2/18=6.5/x

Cross multiply

16.25

XZ is 16.25 centimeters long.

b)

We can do same thing:

7.2/18=x/17

Cross multiply

6.8

QR is 6.8 centimeters long.

Hope this helps!

Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

∠ 5 = 40°

Step-by-step explanation:

∠ 1 and ∠ 2 are adjacent angles and supplementary, thus

∠ 2 = 180° - ∠ 1 = 180° - 140° = 40°

∠ 5 and ∠ 2 are alternate angles and congruent , thus

∠ 5 = 40°

yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

(x-5)(x+6)=0

Step-by-step explanation:

hehe i doing the smae unit rn.

if a=1 (which it does do ac factoring)

you need two numbers that multiply to -30 and add to 1. those numbers  are 5 and -6.

substitute 1x for -5x + 6x.

group the numbers into pairs and find their gcf's

x(x-5)    6(x-5)

since the parenthesis r the same yo only need one. Now you need to put x and 6 in a parenthesis.

FINAL: (x-5)(x+6) hope this helps
