Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The building is 75% taller than the tree (15ft). So you would turn the percent into a decimal, 0.75, and multiply it by 15 to get 11.25. therefore add 11.25 to 15 and get 26.25. Sorry if the explanation isn't up to par

Answer:

The value of x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle Bisector Theorem

An angle bisector of a triangle would cut the opposite side into two segments that are proportional to the other two sides of the triangle.

Thus,

$\frac{x}{15}=\:\frac{12}{20}$

Cross Multiply the expression

$\:20\times x=12\times 15$

Divide both sides by 20

$\frac{20x }{20}=\frac{180}{20}$

$x=9$

Therefore, the value of x = 9
