Question

Solve for x, unit 6 test of similar triangles for geometry

Answer 1

Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

The parallel lines divide the transversal into proportional segments that is

$\frac{x + 4}{13.5} = \frac{4}{9}$

(cross multiply)

9(x+4)=54 (divide by both sides by 9)

x+4=6 (subtract 4 from both sides)

x=2
