it is 24

@Akpellet_math how did you get that? idk how to do it im so confused

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{ ST }{ WB }=\frac{ TC }{ BL }=\frac{ SC }{ WL }\]

OpenStudy (ranga):

In similar triangles, corresponding sides are proportional.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

here WL/WB = SC/ST or WL = 20* 30/25 =24

OpenStudy (anonymous):

put values in that and solve.!
