The vertex where the two triangles touch forms a pair of vertical angles, so that the angles on opposites sides of the vertex are congruent. You're shown that two legs of both triangles are congruent. All this tells you that the two triangles are isosceles, and furthermore that they are similar because of the congruence of their "base" angles.
This means
Answer:
see the explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x ----> number of tennis balls
y ----> number of tennis rackets
we know that
To find out the ratio of tennis balls to tennis rackets, divide the number of tennis ball by the number of tennis rackets
In this problem we have
so
That means
The number of tennis balls is three-fifths times the number of tennis rackets
