Question

Solve for x
A) 5
B) 6
C) 4
D) 3

Answer 1

D

Explanation:

given a line parallel to a side of a triangle and intersecting the other 2 sides the it divides those sides proportionally , that is

`(x)/(15)` =
`(2)/(10)` ( cross- multiply )

10x = 15 × 2 = 30 ( divide both sides by 10 )

x = 3
