Answer to Problem 9PSB

The required sides of given similar triangles are

5.6 units and 7.5 units

Explanation of Solution

Given information

  ΔSVTΔWYX

Measures of sides of triangle

SV = 7 units, ST = 10 units, YX = 6 units and WX = 8 units

Formula used In similar triangles, ratios of corresponding sides are equivalent

Calculation In similar triangles, ΔSVTΔWYX , we have

  WYWX=SVSTWY=WX×SVST=8×710=5.6 units

And further we have,

  VTST=YXWXVT=ST×YXWX=10×68=7.5 units
