I will explain you a simple way to calculate..... listen carefully.... first assume given triangle is two that is....|dw:1393177209612:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

now....|dw:1393177270144:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

in second triangle..... let us think, a=opp/adj we have to do this thing in first triangle....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that is....., in 2nd triangle a=7/14 than in 1st triangle a=x/15 then from two equtions we can find x value eassily....

OpenStudy (gojanij):

i still cant understand

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x/15=7/14 x=(7/14)*15=7.5

OpenStudy (gojanij):

thankyou i just didnt know what equation i had to make.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

or you can also do in another way.... that is two triangles are similar..... so, X:7=15:14 then you will get x=7.5
