Question

if these two figures are similar, what is the measure of the missing angle?
your answer
if these two shapes are similar, what is the measure of the missing length n?
options: 36, 17, 24, 44

Explanation:

Step1: Use the property of similar figures

For similar figures, the ratios of corresponding sides are equal.
$$\frac{44}{68}=\frac{11}{n}$$

Step2: Cross - multiply

Cross - multiply the proportion: \(44n = 68\times11\)

Step3: Solve for \(n\)

First, calculate \(68\times11 = 748\). Then, \(n=\frac{748}{44}\)
\(n = 17\)

Answer:

17
