Answer:
x=10
Step-by-step explanation:
The two triangles are similar since each triangle is the same shape of right triangle but different sizes. To find x, write a proportion between two equal ratios of side lengths.
Solve by cross multiplying.
28(3x) = 20(4x+2)
84x = 80x + 40
4x = 40
x=10
t N.
In the figure shown below
Answer:
A horizontal line segment M K intersects with line segment J L at their midpoint N.
∠J N M =(5x+2)°
∠ LN M=3( x+ 14)°
So, ∠J N M + ∠ LN M =180°[ These two angles form linear pair.Angles forming linear pair are supplementary.]
⇒5 x+ 2+ 3 (x+ 14) =180 [ By Substitution]
⇒ 5 x+2 +3 x+42°= 180°
⇒ 8 x=180°-44°
⇒8 x= 136°
⇒x= 136°÷8
⇒x=17°
So, ∠J N M =5×17 +2=87°
∠ LN M= 3×(17 +14)=3×31=93
∠J N M =∠K N L [Vertically opposite angles]
∠K N L=87°
