Find the value of x if the two triangles are similar. Explain.

Given :

The given two triangles are similar .

To find :-

The value of x .

Solution :

In larger triangle :-

90 + y + y = 1802y = 180 - 90 2y = 90 y = 45°

As we know that ,

Corresponding Angles of similar triangles are same ,

15x = 45x = 45/15 x = 3

Look, when you want to do something like put it like x^2. x2 could mean x² or x₂. so to clear confusion, know the notation. to find the product multiply the x's and you get -8x and the y's and you get 6y. since it's all being multiplied it is just -8x6y, or answer a. although the better answer is -48xy(combining -8 and 6) because you should multiply constants whenever you can.
