Answer:

RC1. 5

RC2. 8

RC3. a

RC4. 3

Explanation:

So basically what you need to start with is the fact that the second triangle is 2 times larger than the first.

so,

8 = 8

C = 10

A = 6

---------------------------------------------------------------------

the next important part is that the opposite sides of the fraction, when multiplied are equal to each other.

( for example 1/2 = 2/4, because 1*4 = 4 and 2*2 = 4)

RC1. a/3 = C/_

substitute

6/3 = 10/_

3 * 10 = 30

6 * _ =30

30/6 = 5.

Rc2. 4c = 5_

4*10 = 5*_

40/5 = 8

RC3. 3c = 5*_

3*10 = 5*_

30/5 = 6

RC4. 4a = 8*_

4 * 6 = 8*_

24/8 = 3

good luck with your schoolwork/homework!

apologies in advance for incorrect answers or bad explanations.
