Answer 1

in second triangle we can easily find 3rd side by applying pythagoras theorem....

Answer 2

that is 10

Answer 3

Now compare two triangles....
because they are similar.....

Answer 4

In similar polygons, the lengths of corresponding sides are proportional.
There is one single pair of corresponding sides in which you are given both lengths, 9 and 6. That allows you to find the ratio of the lengths of corresponding sides. Using this ratio and what @chetan552 showed you above, you can find x and y.

Answer 5

X:8=y:10=9:6
that is
x/8=y/10=9/6
now we can find x and y values...

Answer 6

so x=11 and y=13?

Answer 7

No.... @gojanij
x=12 y=15
