OpenStudy (mckenzieandjesus):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its not actually a right triangle its more of a acute cause its less than 90 degree but anyway I was thinking that I would be 18 or 21 not exact sure

OpenStudy (mckenzieandjesus):

it hass the square in the corner.. thats 90 degrees

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh that yes but like I was saying it is ethier B or D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

18 would be C, h would be A or B

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The angles marked A and B are congruent because they are corresponding angles on parallel lines. The right triangles are similar. Can you set up ratios? |dw:1435689100906:dw|
