Using the fact that the triangles shown are similar, we can set up a proportion between the lengths of the sides. 

The side length in question is QR, or "x". To find its corresponding side in the larger triangle let's look at the similarity.

MNO is similar to PQR
Vertices are always written in order of correspondence when stating similarities. Since QR are the last two letters of the triangle's name, and NO are the last two letters of the larger triangle's name, we know that QR and NO are corresponding sides. We can apply this same method to any other side.

NO/QR = MN/PQ
(MN and PQ are also corresponding sides)
Now we can substitute the side names with their values.
4.5/x = 5/2
Cross multiply
5x = 9
Divide both sides by 5
x = 9/5 or 1.8 or 1 4/5

Hope this helps!

Hello!

ΔMNO ≈ ΔPQR

MN ≈ PQ

MN = 5
PQ = 2

NO = QR

4 1/2 = 9/2

\frac{2}{5} \times  \frac{9}{2} =  \frac{18}{10} = 1  \frac{8}{10} = 1  \frac{4}{5}

Answer ⇒ 3rd choice

Jkl is an equilateral triangle jk= 13x+5,KL= 17X-19 AND JL= 8X+35​
stira [4]

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangle is equilateral then sides are congruent.

Equate any 2 sides and solve for x

13x + 5 = 8x + 35 ( subtract 8x from both sides )

5x + 5 = 35 ( subtract 5 from both sides )

5x = 30 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 6

JK = (13 × 6) + 5 = 78 + 5 = 83

KL = (17 × 6) - 19 = 102 - 19 = 83

JL = (8 × 6) + 35 = 48 + 35 = 83

ΔJKL is equilateral with side = 83

The number -3 can be classified as which of the following?
sp2606 [1]

<u>Answer</u>:

-3 is an integer, rational number and real number , so correct option id D) that is all of the above.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Integer is all natural number  that a 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 ……. And zero and negative of natural numbers like -1 , -2 , -3 , - 4 ……. So -3 is an integer.

Rational number is the number which can be represented in the form of p/q where p and q are integers and q ≠ 0 . As -3 can be represented as (-3)/1 . hence -3 is also a rational number.

Real number is all number which can be represented on number line. All integers and rational numbers are real numbers . so -3 is also a real number.

Hence as -3 is an integer, rational number and real number , so correct option id D) that is all of the above.
