Question

Please help medal for whoever helps me!!!!!!



The polygons are similar but not necessarily drawn to scale. Find the value of x

Answer 1

Set x - 3 equal to its corresponding side, which is 2.5
The equation will look like x - 3 = 2.5
Solve for x!

Answer 2

The proportion of the other sides are:
\[\frac{ 2 }{ 8 } and \frac{ 4 }{ 16 }\]

Answer 3

Answer 4

Similar figures means all the sides are in the same proportion, like zooming in or out sort of... so

Answer 5

\[\frac{ x-3 }{ 2.5 }=\frac{ 8 }{ 2 }\]

Answer 6

all corresponding sides

Answer 7

notice 8/2 = 16/4 = 4
