The two triangles above are similar. a. find x using the ratio of the sides 12 cm and 16 cm: x/20 = 12/16. show your work. b. find x using the ratio of the sides 6 cm and 8 cm show your work. c. explain why the answers to (a) and (b) should be the same. if someone could answer this as fast as they can with the answer and the work, that would be great, you.

Part a)

Part b)

Part c) The answers are the same because the triangles are similar, therefore the  ratio of their corresponding sides are equal

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two triangles are similar, then the ratio of their corresponding sides are equal  and is called the scale factor

Part a) Find x using the ratio of the sides cm and cm

so

The ratio of their corresponding sides is called the scale factor and in this problem is equal to

solve for x

Part b) Find x using the ratio of the sides cm and cm

so

Observe that the scale factor is equal to

solve for x

Part c) The answers are the same because the triangles are similar, therefore the  ratio of their corresponding sides are equal

a) justify

step-by-step explanation:

justifying is just part of everyday life. justify kind of means proof so i think the answer is a) justify.
