Answer:

the answer is 4 (option C)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangles are similar, and in triangle UTV both sides are equal, we can consider QTR also has two equal sides.

therefore, the equation forms:

13x + 3 = 55

13x = 55 - 3

13x = 52

x = 52/13

x = 4

PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Naddik [55]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a) To find the length of diagonal XT, we can use the distance formula to get $\sqrt{(-3-5)^{2}+(4-(-2))^{2}}=10$

Since this is a rectangle, XT=YW, meaning YW=10 as well.

b) The area of a rectangle is given by length times width. The length is |-3-5|=8, and the width is |-2-4|=6. So the area is (8)(6)=48.

c) The perimeter is just 2(8+6)=28.
