Question

Please i need help with this geometry hmw​

Answer 1

TV/RV=TS/RQ, 12/x+6=16/x+1, 12x+12=16x+96, x=21. Therefore, RV=12+x-6=x+6=21+6=27.

Explanation:

Answer 2

Explanation:

The triangles are similar so the ratio of their corresponding sides will be the same. That is, TV/RV is equal to TS/RQ. This gives us the equation 12/x+6=16/x+1. Cross multiplying, this becomes 12x+12=16x+96. Simplifying, we get x=21. Therefore, RV=12+x-6=x+6=21+6=27.
