Find the value of X and Y triangle BLT is congruent to Triangle JFK​

Using the order of the letters in the triangles find the corresponding sides:

BL is similar to JF

LT is similar to KF

BT is similar to JK

Find the scale between LT and KF

9/12 = 3/4

The smaller triangle is 3/4 the size of the lager one.

This means BT = 3/4(JK) = 3/4(4) = 3

So x = 3, so side BL = 2x = 2(3) = 6

Now to solve for y:

BL is 3/4(JF)

6 = 3/4(y)

Solve for y by dividing both sides by 3/4

Y = 6/(3/4)

Y = 8

X = 3, y = 8
