Answer: 22
---------------------------------------------------------
Explanation:
The triangles are similar, so we know the corresponding sides form ratios that are equal.
Note how...
FS and ZD are the first two letters of FSB and ZDR respectively
FB and ZR are the first & last letters of FSB and ZDR respectively
Based on those two facts above, we can form this proportion
FS/ZD = FB/ZR
38/15.2 = 55/x
Solve for x
38/15.2 = 55/x
38*x = 15.2*55
38*x = 836
x = 836/38
x = 22
Answer:
x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Because this is a right triangle, one angle is a right angle (90°). All triangles have all three angle measures adding up to 180°, so the other two angles' measures add up to 90° (90 + 90 = 180).
Combine like terms of the angle measures.
6x + 9x = 15x
-3 + (-12) = -15
15x - 15
Because the sum of the measures of the two angles have to equal 90,
15x - 15 = 90
Add 15 from both sides.
15x = 105
Divide both sides by 15.
x = 7
To check, substitute 7 in both expressions.
6(7) - 3 = 39
9(7) - 12 = 51
39 + 51 + 90 (the measure of the right angle) = 180, so the value of x is 7.
