Answer:

WV = 42

Step-by-step explanation:

Δ UVW and Δ XYW are similar ( by the AA postulate ) , then the ratios of corresponding sides are in proportion, that is

$\frac{WV}{WY}$ = $\frac{WU}{WX}$ ( substitute values )

$\frac{WV}{18}$ = $\frac{35}{15}$ ( cross- multiply )

15 WV = 630 ( divide both sides by 15 )

WV = 42

PLESE HELP GEOMETERY

In this problem, you must use SohCahToa which basically means:

Sin - opposite over hypotenuse

Cosine - adjacent over hypotenuse

Tangent - Opposite over hypotenuse

So in this picture we have 4 -which is on the opposite side of x - and a 5 -which is the hypotenuse of the triangle. This means we must use sin.

Using a calculator you put in:

$sin^{-1} (\frac{4}{5} )$

Your answer is 53.13 degrees
