Answer: Your classmate incorrectly identified the sides that are proportional in the side-splitter theorem.

In this theorem, the segments formed on the traversal are proportional. However, in the diagram your friend is trying to prove that segments on the parallel lines are proportional. If he wanted to do that, he would need to have a different plan.

A man is 25 years old. His mother is exactly three times his age. How old will the man’s mother be when he is 35 years old? ​
klio [65]

Answer:

85

Step-by-step explanation:

Note the mother is 3x his age when he is 25 years old. Multiply 3 with 25:

Ten years pass (35 - 25 = 10). Add 10 to 75:

75 + 10 = 85

When the man is 35 years old, his mother will be 85 years old.
