The red arrows mean the lines are parallel. Since all angles are equal, the larger triangle is similar to the smaller one. Then corresponding sides have the same ratio
(4x -2)/9 = (3x+2)/12
x(4/9 -3/12) = (2/12) +(2/9)
x = (7/18)/(7/36) = 2 . . . . . . . . . corresponding to the 3rd selection
Answer:
x2-4
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Look below
Step-by-step explanation:
Ok, you got a Quadrilateral with the side lengths 6, 9, 9, 12
The shortest of B is 2
Find the scale factor of the A to B
6 -> 2
6/2 = 3
Scale factor is 3
Now divide all the sides by scale factor
6/3, 9/3, 9/3, 12/3 = 2, 3, 3, 4
Add them all together to get the perimeter
2+3+3+4 = 12
Perimeter of B is 12
