Question

Please help me out????

Answer 1

x = 26.4

Explanation:

Since the triangles are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

`(22)/(10)` =
`(x)/(12)` ( cross- multiply )

10x = 22 × 12 = 264 ( divide both sides by 10 )

x = 26.4

Answer 2

26.4

Explanation:

The two triangles are similar, therefore the ratio of the the lengths must be consistent.

We start by finding the scale factor.

Scale Factor = 22/10 = 2.2

With the scale factor, we can find x.

x/12 = 2.2

x = 2.2 x 12

x = 26.4
