OpenStudy (angelina__nievse):

24

OpenStudy (alekos):

I'm assuming these are similar triangles correct?

OpenStudy (welshfella):

If so then the answer is not 24.

OpenStudy (welshfella):

is the bottom right side angle in the second triangle = 55 degrees?

OpenStudy (welshfella):

If so then the 2 triangles are similar and one property of these is that corresponding sides are in the same ratio.

OpenStudy (welshfella):

If you won't participate in this post I cant help you...

OpenStudy (welshfella):

corresponding sides are in the same ratio, so 5 / 20 = x / 24 solve for x.

OpenStudy (somersetday):

A. 9 B. 8 C. 6 D. 7

OpenStudy (somersetday):
