Yes, you are correct.
From the image, we can see 3 triangles, the large triangle and the two triangles that make the larger triangle.
All 3 of these triangles are similar since they're angle measurements are the same (can be proven by geometry).
We can gather the following information from the given information.
- The largest triangle (the one made up of two triangles) has a hypotenuse of 3+9=12, and a leg length of x. The hypotenuse to leg ratio is 12/x
- The second largest triangle has a hypotenuse length x and leg length 9. The hypotenuse to leg ratio is x/9
We know the hypotenuse to corresponding leg ratio must be equal since these two triangles are similar. Thus, we have the equation:
12/x = x/9
Using the cross product property gives us:
x² = 9 × 12
x² = 108
Taking the square root of both sides gives us:
x = √108
= 6 √3
Thus, your answer is correct. Great job!

Answer:
55.75
Step-by-step explanation:
find the area of 1 side using the base and height and divide that answer by 2
5x6=30 30 divided by 2=15
all sides are equal so each side is 15
the base you do the same thing.
base is 5, height is 4.3
4.3 x 5= 21.5
divide it by 2 10.75
side 1=15
side 2= 15
side 3=15
base 1= 10.75
add all together

Hello! So the formula for compound interest is P(1 + r)^t, where r = rate, P = principal, and t = time (years). C is out, because you multiply the rate and principal together to get the price, not add. You raise the decimal to a certain power, based on the amount of years. You add 1 to the rate. 5% in decimal form is 0.05 and you must add 1 to the amount, which eliminated B. The only answer that works is A, because it shows the correct formula. The answer is A.

EXPLNATION:
____________
The line is going up which means the slope is positive
The line goes down/up 3 and left/right 5 which means the slope is 3/5
The line touch positive 3 on the y line which is the y-intercept (0,3)

Answer:
D. about 8.5 mi
Step-by-step explanation:
To go from Aesha to Josh, you go 6 units right and 6 units up.
Each unit is a mile, so you go 6 miles right and 6 miles up.
Think of each 6 mile distance as a leg of a right triangle, and the direct distance from one place to the other as the hypotenuse of the right triangle. Use the Pythagorean theorem to find the length of the hypotenuse.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
The 6-mile legs are a and b. c is the hypotenuse.
(6 mi)^2 + (6 mi)^2 = c^2
c^2 = 36 mi^2 + 36 mi^2
c^2 = 72 mi^2
c = sqrt(72) mi
c = sqrt(36 * 2) mi
c = 6sqrt(2) mi
c = 6(1.4142) mi
c = 8.5 mi
