Can you help me please? @anthonyym

OpenStudy (anthonyym):

Similar figures have sides that are proportional to each other. So you have, \[\frac{ 8 }{ x }=\frac{ 6 }{ 9 }\] You can now solve by cross multiplying.

x=12?

OpenStudy (anthonyym):

Correct! Or another proportion is \[\frac{ 8 }{ 6 }=\frac{ x }{ 9 }\]. You will still get the same value for x. As long as the sides are corresponding then it's a valid proportion.
