Answer:
11
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x=12
Step-by-step explanation:
2) Larger triangle is twice as large as the smaller one so x is 16
3) 16/12.8= 1.25 (This is the scale factor)
for y: 10/1.25=8
for x: 30/1.25=16
4) 8/6.4=1.25 (Scale factor)
for y: 14/1.25=11.2
for x: 15/1.25= 12
5) 22.5/9= 2.5 (scale factor)
for x: 12x2.5=30
for y: 35/2.5= 14
6) No because the scale factor is 2 but 14/8 does not equal to 2

Answer: D) Cannot be determined</h3>
Explanation:
Choice A isn't the answer because we don't know anything about the angles, so we can't use the AA (angle angle) Similarity theorem.
Choice B isn't the answer because we don't have info about all three pairs of sides (we only have two pairs of sides).
Choice C isn't the answer in a similar way choice A isn't either. We don't know anything about the angles, so we can't use the "A" in "SAS".
Choice D is the only thing left. It turns out we don't have enough info to be able to determine if the triangles are similar or not.
