Answer:
b=9ft a=32 degrees
Explanation:
The triangles in each pair are similar meaning the angles will also be the same.
18ft is 2.25x 8ft so to get b, we multiply the side that is proportionate to it, which is side 4ft
4x2.25=9ft
b=9ft
angle a is directly across from side 4ft which is proportionate to side b.
therefore, angle A is also propertionate to the angle across from side b, 32 degrees.
