Answer:

ΔABC and  ΔXYZ are SIMILAR by SSS property of similarity.

Step-by-step explanation:

SSS Similarity Theorem:

Two triangles are said to be similar if their  CORRESPONDING SIDES are proportional.

In ΔABC and  ΔXYZ, if \frac{AB}{XY}  = \frac{BC}{YZ} = \frac{AC}{XZ}  , then  △ABC∼△YZX

Here, in ΔABC and  ΔXYZ

AB = 9, BC = x , AC = 12

Similarly, XY = 3, YZ = 2, ZX = 4

Here,

\frac{AB}{XY} = \frac{9}{3}  = 3\\\frac{BC}{YZ} = \frac{x}{2} \\\frac{Ac}{Xz} = \frac{12}{4}  = 3

⇒ Corresponding sides are in the ratio of 3, if BC  =6 units

Hence, if BC  = 6 units, then the ΔABC and  ΔXYZ are SIMILAR by SSS property of similarity.

The sum of the digits of a two-digit number is 9. If the digits are reversed,the new number is 9 more than the original number.F
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

45

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the original number be xy where y is unit and x is tens hence original number is 10x+y When reversed, the new number is yz hence 10y+x

We know that the original number plus 9 is the reversed number hence

10x+y+9=10y+x

9y-9x=9 which when simplified we obtain that

y-x=1 equation 1

Originally, we are told that the sum of x and y is 9 hence

y+x=9 equation 2

Solving equation 1, it means y=x+1

Substituting the above into equation 2

x+1+x=9

2x=9-1

2x=8

x=8/2=4

Since y=x+1 then y=4+1=5

Therefore, the original number, xy is 45
