The triangles below are similar. Find the value of x. (the big triangle has two sides that say 21, and the bottom says 24. The small triangle has two sides that say 10.5, and the bottom is X)

Answer 1

The Options are-

14

12.5

13.5

12

Answer 2

21/24 = 10.5/x

well 10.5 is half of 21
and we all know 12 is half of 24
so
10.5/12

Answer 3

I'm NOT getting any of the options.......

Answer 4

Now maybe you need to do this a more official way to really get it
21/24 = 10.5/x

we want to get the 24 and the x out of the bottom
so
multiply both sides by 24 x
24 x (21/24) = 24 x (10.5/x)

21 x = 24 * 10.5
x = 24 * (10.5/21)
x = 24 * (.5)
x = 12

Answer 5

I said 12, and 12 is an option
