FIRST QUESTION: if triangle XYZ is similar to triangle PMN, what is the value of ∠X when ∠P=30°?
SECOND QUESTION: if triangle XYZ is similar to triangle PMN and side X=6, side Y=2, and side P=12, what is the length of side M?
1 Expert Answer
First Question: The corresponding angles of similar triangles are equal. <X and <P are corresponding angles so they are equal and <X = <P = 30.
Second Question: The ratio of corresponding sides of similar triangles are the same. So the ratio of X to P will equal the ratio of Y to M:
6 = 2
--- ----
12 M
M = 4
