another way.

Step 1: Our output value is 9000.

Step 2: We represent the unknown value with $x$.

Step 3: From step 1 above,$9000=100$.

Step 4: Similarly, $x=.8%$.

Step 5: This results in a pair of simple equations:

$9000=100%(1)$.

$x=.8%(2)$.

Step 6: By dividing equation 1 by equation 2 and noting that both the RHS (right hand side) of both

Step 7: Again, the reciprocal of both sides gives

Therefore, 8%of $9000$ is $720

Hello from MrBillDoesMath

Answer:   SAS,  the second choice

Discussion:

The sides with  a single "tick mark" in each triangle have the same length.

The sides with  two "tick marks"  in each triangle have the same length.

Finally the angle shown in each triangle is the same.

Hence we have congruence by  S(ide)-A(ngle)-S(ide) which is the second bullet point from the top of the list.


Thank you,

Mr. B
