Answer:

405

Step-by-step explanation:

Since

2 : 9 = 90 : X

Then we know

9/2 = X/90

Multiplying both sides by 90 cancels on the right

90 × (9/2) = (X/90) × 90

90 × (9/2) = X

Then solving for X

X = 90 × (9/2)

X = 405

Therefore

2 : 9 = 90 : 405

Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

a² + b² = c²

x² + 12² = 13²

x² + 144 = 169

x² = 169 - 144

x² = 25
