Answer 6

1st prob 1st - u may want to repost the second one separately....

triangle ABE and ACD are similar so their sides should be in the same ratio ok?

Answer 7

ok and ok

Answer 8

so how would I solve it?

Answer 9

What is the ratio of AB to AC?

Answer 10

60?

Answer 11

Not exactly - try this: what is length of AB and AC? Then divide AB/AC to find the ratio.

Answer 12

1?

Answer 13

What is length of AB?

Answer 14

30

Answer 15

How about AC? From point A to point C

Answer 16

60

Answer 17

So AB/AC=?

Answer 18

would the answer be b?

Answer 19

30/60= 1/2?

Answer 20

Nope, b is not the right ans sorry!

Answer 21

Correct - 1/2 is right
now because the triangles are similar,

BE/CD=AB/AC

Answer 22

so 1/2=1/2?

Answer 23

What are length of BE and CD?

Answer 24

60?

Answer 25

wait cd is 48

Answer 26

No, length between point B and E?

Yes, CD is 48

Answer 27

im confused of how to figure that out..

Answer 28

Read your picture plz - the length is shown as what you are trying to solve here

Answer 29

3x

Answer 30

put in the values of BE and CD and ratio of AB/AC in:

BE/CD = AB/AC

What will you get?

Answer 31

9/16?

Answer 32

do i do 3/48 and 30/60?

Answer 33

YES, you just missed the x there, it should be

3x / 48 = 30 / 60

Solve for x and you get the ans.

Answer 34

30/60= 1/2 but how do i solve the other side?

Answer 35

3x / 48 =1/2

then multiply both sides by 48
