To find the length of x, we can set up a proportion using the similar triangles:
9.6 / x = 6.4 / 2
Now we can cross multiply and solve for x:
9.6 * 2 = 6.4 * x
19.2 = 6.4x
To isolate x, we divide both sides of the equation by 6.4:
19.2 / 6.4 = x
3 = x
Therefore, x is equal to 3 inches.
the bottom of one triangle is 9.6 inches and we dont know the side lenght so thats x the other triangle bottom is 6.4 and the side lenght is 2 inches how long is x
