Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Nick's age = x years

Lina's age =3*x = 3x

After 6 years,

Lina's age = 3x + 6

Nick's age = x + 6

3x + 6 = 2*(x+6)

3x + 6 = 2*x + 2*6

3x + 6 = 2x + 12      {Subtract 6 form both sides}

3x +6 - 6 = 2x + 12 - 6

3x  = 2x + 6    {subtract 2x from both sides}

3x - 2x = 2x + 6 - 2x

x = 6

Nick's age = 6 years

Lina's age =3*6 = 18 years

Two triangles are similar. The perimeter of the smaller one is 16. The ratio of the corresponding sides is 2:5. The sides of the
Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

Perimeter of larger triangle is 40.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Perimeter of smaller circle = 16

Ratio of corresponding side = 2:5

We need to find the perimeter of the larger triangle.

Solution:

Let the perimeter of the larger triangle be 'x'.

Therefore by theorem which states that;

" When a triangle have scale factor a:b then the ratio of the perimeters is a:b".

Here Ratio is 2:5, so we can say by theorem, Ratio of perimeters is 2:5

framing in equation form we get;

\frac{\textrm{Perimeter of smaller triangle}}{\textrm{Perimeter of Larger triangle}}=\frac{2}{5}

Substituting the values we get;

\frac{16}{x}=\frac{2}{5}

By Cross multiplication we get;

16\times 5=2x\\\\80=2x

Dividing both side by 2 we get;

\frac{80}{2}=\frac{2x}{2}\\\\x=40

Hence Perimeter of larger triangle is 40.
