amistre64 · Answer

are we to assume right angles and a rectangle?

amistre64 · Answer

if so, then tr = sw

5x-4 = 2x+3

3x = 7

x = 7/3 ??

amistre64 · Answer

the wt=rs = 3x-1 = 6

amistre64 · Answer

but other than that, you cant do much else....can you?

anonymous · Answer

I don't think your assumption is valid, since SW is different than TR.

amistre64 · Answer

sw is different; its equation is different; but x = x....right?

amistre64 · Answer

i think i see what your saying :)

amistre64 · Answer

well, i made them equal to find x so they should be good with that assumption

anonymous · Answer

You do? that's good :)

anonymous · Answer

I see what you did.

anonymous · Answer

If it's right triangle and the shape is of a rectangle, then the two angles should be exactly the same. Right?

amistre64 · Answer

yes the 2 tris should be the same; the angles of a tri can be different tho; but the same in each tri....congruent/similar?

amistre64 · Answer

the tris are equal so the sides are equal regardless right :)

amistre64 · Answer

my stupidity played in my favor lol   i dint see the congruent triangle part lol

anonymous · Answer

Haha.

anonymous · Answer

I didn't actually get what you're saying :)

amistre64 · Answer

since the triangles are similiar, and they have one side that is the same; the other sides are equal..... so its as if its a rectangle :)

anonymous · Answer

Oh yeah, almost.

amistre64 · Answer

i equate two same sides and find x then find the length of th emissing by equating it to the known side

anonymous · Answer

Exactly.
