Question

Given the two similar triangles below. What is the measure of x?

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer would be 2.4

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because 5 is the same as 2, and 7 is the same as y, and then 6 is the same as x. If you divide 5 by 2 you get 2.5 if you divide 6 by 2.5 you get 2.4  

Answer 2

Answer:

x=2.4

Step-by-step explanation:

as the 2 triangles are similar,

$\frac{6}{x} = \frac{5}{2}$

therefore ;

$x = \frac{6 \times 2}{5}$

$x = 2.4$
