Triangles ABC and ADE are similar triangles. That means the sides are all scaled by the same factor.
To go from side BC to side DE, you multiply by 1.25. That means 1.25 is your scale factor. Now apply that factor to the bottom side to get your answer.
Side AB is 6. That means side AD is 6 x 1.25 = 7.5. That means x = 7.5 - 6 = 1.5
Answer:
the answer would be C
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:88
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Look at the picture.
ΔADC and ΔCDB are similar. Therefore the sides are in proportion:
We have
Substitute:
<em>cross multiply</em>
For x use the Pythagorean theorem:
C. Negative because since the neutral atom stands at 0 and positive ions are 1+ and electrons are negative if it gains the electron ( negative ) it will become negative.
