What is the value of x? Enter your answer in the box. x = cm A bow tie shape polygon made of two bow ties that share a vertex. T

he shape is created by two segments intersecting forming two triangles with vertical angles. An alternate interior angle of the triangles are marked congruent to each other. The larger triangle is on the left and the smaller triangle is on the right. In the larger triangle, the left side of the triangle is 32 centimeters. The south side of the triangle is 40 centimeters.

Answer:

side x is 5 cm long

Step-by-step explanation:

Use proportions, given that the two triangles are similar because they contain three equal angles:

One angle due to connected by the vertex (oppose by the vertex), another angle as marked with the tick, and the third one has to be the same due to the fact that the addition of the three internal angles of a triangle must equal 180 degrees.

Then our proportion becomes:

\frac{4}{32} =\frac{x}{40}

And then we solve for x by multiplying both sides by 40 (to eliminate the denominator on the right):

\frac{4}{32} =\frac{x}{40} \\\frac{4*40}{32} =x\\ x=5\,\,cm

Carlos used 6 boards to build 2/3 of a front porch. How many boards will Carlos use to build the whole porch? Express your answe
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

9 boards

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3 of the porch= 6 boards

so to figure out how much one third of the porch needs you find half of what it takes to fill in 2/3 of the porch and you get 3.

so 3=1/3 of the porch

then you simply do 3times 3 or 3+3+3 and you get 9

so it takes 9 boards to fill the whole porch

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Alternate angles are congruent.

7x - 9 = 3x + 15               {Subtract 3x form both sides}

7x - 3x -9 = 15

      4x - 9=15            {Add 9 to both sides}

           4x = 15+9

           4x = 24

           x = 24/4

x = 6
