The figures in the picture are similar to each other find the value of x

Mathematics
1 answer:
alisha [4.7K]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Similar figures have sides that are proportional.  Setting up a proportion for the sides of the figures will help solve for 'x':

\frac{small}{large}=\frac{3}{6}=\frac{(x-3)}{(x+1)}

Cross-multiply:  3(x + 1) = 6(x - 3)

Distribute:  3x + 3 = 6x - 18

Combine like terms:  21 = 3x

Solve for 'x':  x = 7

Zarrin [17]
<h3>Answer: (C) (14,8)</h3>

============================================

Explanation:

The perimeter of the square is 36, so each side length is 36/4 = 9 units.

Point B is located at (5,17). We move down 9 units to get to (5,8), which is the location of point A. Then we move 9 units to the right to arrive at (14,8) which is point D's location.

Or we could go from B = (5,17) to C = (14,17) and then to D = (14,8). Each time we move 9 units.
