Find the length of CU, the triangles are similar.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Otrada [13]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

CU = 117

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangles are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

\frac{WC}{WU} = \frac{CD}{UV}

substituting in values to the ratios

\frac{26}{36x-1} = \frac{24}{132} ( cross- multiply )

24(36x - 1) = 3432 ( divide both sides by 24 )

36x - 1 = 143 ( add 1 to both sides )

36x = 144 ( divide both sides by 36 )

x = 4

CU = 36x - 1 - 26 = (36 × 4) - 27 = 144 - 27 = 117
