Do you have answer key anywhere?

#

I think i understand but im not sure...

#

in 1a) both triangles are similar and info for the right side triangle is given

#

So we find the scale factor of right side triangle to left side triangle.

#

10 * (8/10) = 8

#

thus, scale factor 8/10 or 4/5 (simplified version)

#

so 9 * (4/5) should give you x value?

#

@twin mesa

#

If this method was right, 1b) i think, x = 5
