Find the value of x.

We have the similar triangles. Therefore the lengths of the sides are in proportion:

$\dfrac{x}{22}=\dfrac{42}{11+22}\\\\\dfrac{x}{22}=\dfrac{42}{33}\qquad\text{cross multiply}\\\\33x=(22)(42)\qquad\text{divide both sides by 33}\\\\x=\dfrac{(22\!\!\!\!\!\diagup^2)(42)}{33\!\!\!\!\!\diagup_3}\\\\x=\dfrac{(2)(42\!\!\!\!\!\diagup^{14})}{\not3_1}\\\\x=(2)(14)\\\\\boxed{x=28}$

Parallelogram PARL is similar to parallelogram WXYZ. If AP = 25, PL = 29, and WZ = 145, find the value of c.

joja [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is 56

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallelogram PARL is similar to parallelogram WXYZ. If AP = 14, PL = 25, and WZ = 100, find the value of c.

100=25*4, so the other side must be also multiplicated by 4 ansd 14*4=56
