Because of rules of geometry we know that a+b=180 degrees so we can add the equations together and set that equal to 180 and solve
6x-48+4x+38=180
subtract 38 from both sides and add 48 to both sides
then add like terms
10x=170
and divide by 10 to get
x=17
3/4 x 6 = 18/4 = 4 1/2

Answer:
Second choice
Step-by-step explanation:
The sides of the new triangle is in proportion to a scale of 3 to the original triangle. Since the sides are in proportions, the triangles are similar. Thus the angles are the same.
15/17. The value (ratio) of cos A is 15/17.
The trigonometric ratios of an acute angle are, basically, the sine, the cosine and the tangent. They are defined from an acute angle, α, of a right triangle, whose elements are the hypotenuse, the leg contiguous to the angle, and the leg opposite the angle.
-The sine of the angle is the opposite leg divided by the hypotenuse.
-The cosine of the angle is the adjacent leg divided by the hypotenuse.
-The tangent of the angle is the opposite leg divided by the adjacent leg or, which is the same, the sine of the angle divided by the cosine of the angle.
cos A = adjacent leg/hypothenuse = BC/AC = 15/17
