If the triangles are similar, then the corresponding ratio of their sides have equal ratios. Through ratio and proportion, we would determine the answer.
5/6 = x/9, where x is the length for side PN
Transposing the equation so that x is on the left side:
x = (5/6)*9
x = 7.5
Where is the table? You could potentiallysolve this by deconstructing the function.
Answer: Remember that the tens place is two moves to the left of the decimal point (if it exists). To round to the nearest ten (nearest 10), we use the whole numbers place to determine whether the tens place rounds up or stays the same.
Solution steps:
Step 1: Locate and underline the tens place () and look to digit to the right (6):
36
Step 2: In this case, the digit to the right 6 is 5 or above. So, we add 1 to the tens place (). The digit(s) after the (6) are dropped. Thus, we get 40 as answer.
In short: 36 rounded to the nearest tens is 40.
