How to solve stacked similar figures

Mathematics
1 answer:
Aleonysh [2.5K]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You can identify similar polygons by comparing their corresponding angles and sides. As you see in the following figure, quadrilateral WXYZ is the same shape as quadrilateral ABCD, but it’s ten times larger (though not drawn to scale, of course). These quadrilaterals are therefore similar.

similar polygons: For two polygons to be similar, both of the following must be true:

Corresponding angles are congruent.

Corresponding sides are proportional.

To fully understand this definition, you have to know what corresponding angles and corresponding sides mean. (Maybe you’ve already figured this out by just looking at the figure.) Here’s the lowdown on corresponding. In the figure, if you expand ABCD to the same size as WXYZ and slide it to the right, it’d stack perfectly on top of WXYZ.

Twice the product of 3and a number exceeds the sum of the number and 80 by 10.what is the number?
Hatshy [7]
First, create an equation with the criteria given.

If we let x be your number,
2(3x) = 80 + x + 10
(2(3x) is twice the product of 3 and x, and if it exceeds x+80 by 10, then we add 10 to x+80 to make the two sides of the equation equal.)

Now, solve for x.

6x=90+x \\ 5x=90 \\ x=18
