The small & large triangle are similar the we can write the following proportion/ratio:

8/(8+x) = 12/(12+18) ==> 12(8+x) =8(12+18) ==> 96+12x=240

12x =240-96 ==> 12x = 144 and x=12

The 3 sides of a triangle have lengths of (4x+3) cm, (2x+8) cm, and (3x-10) cm. What is the length of the shortest side if the p
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

The shortest sides is 3x-10

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because if you do the algebra which is 4x+3+2x+8+3x-10=136, x=15. Now that you have 15 you plug it into each sides x value. First, 4x+3= 4*15+3=63

Second, 2x+8=30+8=38

Lastly, 3x-10=45-10=35

So, as you can see here 35 is the lowest value which means the side (3x-10) is the shortest.

What does the dotted line in the diagram imply about the number of triangles you can construct from the given information
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:A triangle is aptly named: it is composed of three (tri) angles formed by three non-coincident, non-parallel lines. That the lines are non-coincident means they do not overlap, and that they are non-parallel means that each line intersects with every other line. Correspondingly, a triangle also has three sides.

Figure this out please Asap.
weeeeeb [17]

If the polygons are similar then the sides are in proportion.

\dfrac{32}{24}=\dfrac{32:8}{24:8}=\dfrac{4}{3}

Therefore we have the equations:

\dfrac{x-1}{6}=\dfrac{4}{3}\qquad\text{cross multiply}\\\\3(x-1)=(4)(6)\\\\3x-3=24\qquad\text{add 3 to both sides}\\\\3x=27\qquad\text{divide both sides by 3}\\\\\boxed{x=9}


\dfrac{y+1}{21}=\dfrac{4}{3}\qquad\text{cross multiply}\\\\3(y+1)=(21)(4)\\\\3y+3=84\qquad\text{subtract 3 from both sides}\\\\3y=81\qquad\text{divide both sides by 3}\\\\\boxed{y=27}
