Pretend you have 2 triangles that are similar.

Question

Triangle 1 has sides that are 18 and 24.

Triangle 2 has sides that are x and 6.

What is the value of x?

-6
-8 <--- THIS ONE!
-30
-72

Because...

x/24 (X) 6/18
24 x 6 = 144
144 / 18 = 8

I'll give it a go.

Answer 1

8 x 18 = 144

24 x 6 = 144

Answer 2

NOPE, look at my last reply to your previous post

Answer 3

Another simple way to look at it:
24 ----> 6 , so it was reduced by a factor of 1/4

what is (1/4) of 18 ????

Answer 4

Erm... okay.

Well, my quiz said it was correct.

Answer 5

8 works if you reverse order

Answer 6

Brainless cat...
