For this problem, we can use ratio since these triangle are said to be similar triangles. We calculate as follows:

L1/A1 = L2/A2
4/18 = 8/A2
2/9 = 8/A2
A2 = 36 square inches

The area of the larger triangle would be 36 square inches. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.

Answer:

The angle <SXN measures 108 degrees, and the angle <SXV measures 72 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determined the angles <SXN and <SXV, you need to first figure out what <SNX amounts to and then use the angle-sum property of the triangle NSX.

The following is true:

<SNX = 90 - <QNX    (this is because <QNS is a right angle)

and

<QNX = <YNP = 56     (given)

so

<SNX = 90 - 56 = 34 degrees

Now, using the triangle-sum property:

<SXN = 180 - <SNX - <XSN = 180 - 34 - 38 = 108 degrees

Now that you have <SXN, to determine <SXV use the property that <SXV is supplementary angle to <SXN, hence

<SXV = 180 - <SXN = 180 - 108 = 72 degrees

All done!
