Given;
ABCDE is similar to VWXYZ
so, the corresponding segments are proportional
We need to find the length of XY
XY is corresponding to CD
CD = 1.2 cm
Finding another two corresponding sides
DE = 3.2 cm , YZ = 4 cm
so,
So, the length of XY = 1.5 cm
So we start by combining like terms;
Now we have;
We then subtract 1 from both sides;
Then we divide both sides by 5;
Leaving the final answer to be h = -2
