Answer 1

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the 2 figures are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

$\frac{8}{x}$ = $\frac{18}{6}$ ( cross- multiply )

18x = 48 ( divide both sides by 18 )

x = $\frac{48}{18}$ = $\frac{8}{3}$ = 2 $\frac{2}{3}$

Similarly

$\frac{5}{y}$ = $\frac{18}{6}$ ( cross- multiply )

18y = 30 ( divide both sides by 18 )

y = $\frac{30}{18}$ = $\frac{5}{3}$ = 1 $\frac{2}{3}$
