Answer:

y = 9.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Since both triangles are said to be similar, the proportion or ratio of the sides of both triangles would be equal.

Therefore, 39/y = 23/5.75 = 35/8.75

Let's find y

39/y = 23/5.75

==>Cross multiply

39*5.75 = 23*y

224.25 = 23y

==>Divide both sides by 23

224.25/23 = y

9.75 = y

y = 9.75

Check:

Thus,

39/9.75 = 23/5.75 = 35/8.75 = 4

Our answer y, which is 9.75, is correct.

Classify the following triangle. Check all that apply. A. Scalene B. Right C. Acute D. Equilateral E. Obtuse F. Isosceles ​
Sati [7]

Answer:

E and F

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle given has two equal sides, and an obtuse angle that is more than 90° that measures 120°. The other two angles are of equal measure since their opposite sides are of the same length. Thus, this implies that it is an isosceles triangle because it has two equal base angles and two equal sides. It also implies that it is an obtuse triangle since one of it's angles is more than 90°.
