I have a rectangle MNOP ~ rectangle STUV. What is the length of line TU??

First rectangle is MNOP with 10 on top and 4 on the side.

Second rectangle is STUV. With the top marked X for the unknown number and n the side is 6.

I need help solving this. Do you guys think you can help??

You want to compare length to length and width to width to make your ratio.

10/4 = x/6

cross multiply: 60 = 4x
x = 15

Check the answer to see if you get the same ratio

10/15 is that the same as 4/6
Yes.. they both reduce to 2/3.
I think John is right
What is the answer?????
15=x
this is for the writing question
The measure of TU is 15.

We set up a proportion to solve this.Β  Using the similarity statement, we know that MN is proportional to ST, NO is proportional to TU, OP is proportional to UV, and PM is proportional to VS.

NO/TU = OP/UV
10/x = 4/6

Cross multiply to solve it:
10*6 = x*4
60 = 4x

Divide both sides by 4:
60/4 = 4x/4
15=x
aight thanks m8
Thanks I did johns though

choose if you fail or not
Whos right
Villain Deku, this is written response. what are you talking about?
To put it simply the answer is 15
The answer is A: 18 units
that answer is LOGICAL.
no=15 op=6
uv=9 6+3=9 so, 15+3=18, it's that simple guys, it's that simple.
but how is it that hard for you guys?
Thanks Villain Deku
Thx guys!
thank u good sir
The answer is 18 but she wasnt
NO/TU = OP/UV
10/x = 4/6

Cross multiply to solve it:
10*6 = x*4
60 = 4x

Divide both sides by 4:
60/4 = 4x/4
15=x

he is right tysm your welcome for an extra copy
Y’all I just want a simple answer <3
Yall just need to state a simple answer to the fxvking question. Its not that hard.
and its not that hard to make it a simple answer, so just go πŸ˜•
