To solve this problem, we can set up a proportion using the given side lengths and the missing side length.
The proportion is:
13 yd / 3.25 yd = x / 4.23 yd
To find x, we can cross multiply:
13 yd * 4.23 yd = 3.25 yd * x
54.99 yd^2 = 3.25 yd * x
Now we can divide both sides of the equation by 3.25 yd to isolate x:
54.99 yd^2 / 3.25 yd = x
x ≈ 16.92 yd
Therefore, the missing side length, x, is approximately 16.92 yards.
13 yd , x
3.25 yd , 4.23 yd
Use proportions to find the missing side length ( x ) in the two similar figures.
