Question

NO LINKS!! Similar figures are given. Use the given area to find the measure of XY.​

Answer 1

Remember for any two polygons

Area of polygons is directly proportional to square of sides

So

• BC²/XY²=135/15
• 15²/XY²=9
• (15/3)²=XY²
• XY=5in

#35

• HJ²/XY²=168/378
• 8²/XY²=0.44
• XY²=64/0.44
• XY²=145.45
• XY\approx 12+

Answer 2

`\textsf {See below :-}`

Explanation:

`\textsf {Relation to keep in mind :}\\`

`\implies \mathsf {Area = length^(2)}`

`\textsf {Question 34}`

`\implies \mathsf {(135)/(15) = ((15)/(XY))^(2) }`

`\implies \mathsf {XY^(2) = (15^(3))/(135)}}`

`\implies \mathsf {XY = 5}`

`\textsf {Question 35}`

`\implies \mathsf {(378)/(168) = ((XY)/(8))^(2) }`

`\implies \mathsf {XY= \sqrt{(378 * 64)/(168)}}`

`\implies \mathsf {XY = √(144)}`

`\implies \mathsf {XY = 12}`
