Answer:

IJ ≈ 35.6

Explanation:

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


(IJ)/(EF) =
(KL)/(GH) , substitute values


(IJ)/(11) =
(55)/(17) ( cross- multiply )

17 IJ = 605 ( divide both sides by 17 )

IJ ≈ 35.6 ( to the nearest tenth )

Answer:


x = 35.6

Explanation:

It is given that figure (HGFE) and figure (LKJI) are similar. Meaning that one must multiply a side of the figure (HGFE) by a number to get the corresponding side length from the figure (LKJI). To find this number, one must divide two corresponding sides.


(KL)/(FE)


=(55)/(17)

Now to find a missing side in figure (LKJI) one must multiply its corresponding side by (
(55)/(17)) in figure (HGFE) to find the length of the missing side.


EF * (55)/(17) = JI\\\\11 * (55)/(17) = JI\\\\(605)/(17) = JI


x = (605)/(17)\\\\x=35.6
