Question

complete the proportion RS/VU=ST/x im am trying to find x.
its also the same for this one TU * RT + TV *______

Answer 1

i know the answer to the second question it is ST

Answer 2

What do you've to find in the question?

Answer 3

i need to find x and the only answers given are
a. TV
b. TU
c. RT
d. SV

Answer 4

Well, use the similarity concept. AQ is parallel to ST, right?
Can you prove that triangles AQR and RST are similar?

Answer 5

ummmm yes you cna prove that the problem is i dont really understand what its asking exactly

Answer 6

can*

Answer 7

Which points are V and U? I don't see them in the diagram.

Answer 8

For these triangles to be similar to set up a proportion, 2/5 = 3/6 or 2/6 =3/5 would have to be true. Something is wrong with the diagram or the given lengths. Please check the question and diagram. Thanks.

Answer 9

i accidentally put the wrong figure up

Answer 10

PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Answer 11

That means the proportion for which you need x could be RS/VU = ST/UT or RS/UV = ST/VT.
So, x could be UT or VT.
---------
Looking at the statement you wrote: TU * RT + TV *______
I'm wonderng if you meant to write TU * RT = TV * ____.
If "its also the same for this one TU * RT + TV *______" means that the answer to the first part (find x) is the same value that is corrrect for TU * RT = TV * ____, then I would guess ST as the answer.
The guess is based on reading information into the stated problem and is just a guess.

Answer 12

so for the first problem which one would it most likely be?

Answer 13

I would guess ST as the answer.
