9. x=22
10. x=12
Explanation:
1. RS/WS=ST/SX and m<RST=m<WSX
2. AB/PQ=8/6=4/3
BC/QR=AC/PR=12/9=4/3
AB/PQ=BC/QR=AC/PR
3. ST/JP=10/15=2/3
SU/JM=14/21=2/3
ST/JP=2/3=SU/JM
and m<TSU=70°=m<PJM
4. DK/PR=8/4=2
JK/ZR=18/9=2
DK/PR=2=JK/ZR
and m<DKJ=65°=m<PRZ
5. RT/ST=UT/LT
and m<RTU=m<STL
6. KL/YW=20/18=10/9
JL/XW=36/24=3/2
KL/YW=10/9≠3/2=JL/XW
7. BF/NL=24/16=3/2
BE/NM=39/26=3/2
BF/NL=3/2=BE/NM
and m<EBF=m<MNL
8. GH/QR=32/20=8/5
HI/RS=40/25=8/5
GI/QS=24/15=8/5
GH/QR=HI/RS=GI/QS=8/5
9. x/33=18/27
Simplifying the fraction on the right side of the equation:
x/33=2/3
Solving for x: Multiplying both sides of the equation by 33:
33(x/33)=33(2/3)
x=11(2)
x=22
10. x/16=9/12
Simplifying the fraction on the right side of the equation:
x/16=3/4
Solving for x: Multiplying both sides of the equation by 16:
16(x/16)=16(3/4)
x=4(3)
x=12
