7 students brought lunch from home
If two triangles are similar, then their side lengths are proportional.
RS / JK = RT / JL
5 / x = 4 / 7
4x = 35
x = 35/4 = 8.75
RT / JL = TS / LK
4 / 7 = 6 / (y + 2)
42 = 4(y + 2)
42 = 4y + 4
4y = 38
y = 38/4 = 9.5
LK = 9.5 + 2 = 11.5 cm
JK = x = 8.75
Hope this helps!
Answer:
50
Step-by-step explanation:
MHJ and LHK are vertical angles, which means they are equal
2x-20 = x+15
Subtract x from each side
2x-20-x = x+15-x
x-20 = 15
Add 20 to each side
x-20+20 = 15+20
x = 35
We want to find MHJ
MHJ =2x-20
=2(35) -20
= 70 -20
= 50
