Question

Can someone pls help me with this question ​

Answer 1

I'll find X for you; the next step is by you.

Explanation:

we have two similar pentagons

I will do it in 2 ways.

1.

=> 48/4x = (x+2)/x

=> 12/x = (x+2)/x

Because of pentagons so x > 0

=> 12 = x + 2 => x = 10

2.

k is unknown number

=> 4x = k.x and 48 = k.(x + 2) (x > 0)

=> k = 4 and 48 = 4.(x + 2)

=> 12 = x + 2 => x = 10
