Answer:

u=48

Explanation:

In similar triangles, corresponding sides have the same ratio.

64/96=u/72

Step 1: Cross-multiply

(64)*(72)=u*(96)

4608=96u

Step 2: Flip the equation.

96u=4608

Step 3: Divide both sides by 96.

96u /96=4608 /96

u=48

Answer:

40 cm.

Explanation:

So what I tried to do in this case is compare 96 to 64. I subtracted those two numbers which is 32. So since thats the difference between those two shapes, I did the same thing with 72 and I subtracted it but 32, which led me to 40.

Hope this helped :)
