HELP PLEASE Use the proportion of the triangle enlargement to find the missing measure of the enlarged triangle.

1. Set up the proportion: StartFraction 9 over 6 EndFraction = StartFraction x over 16 EndFraction
2. Use cross product: 9(16) = 6x
3. Simplify:
144 =
4. Divide:
= x

Without the image of the triangle you had, it is not easy to see what the sides are, but the Step-by-step is there to guide you through the process.

You are supposed to get x = 24 for the missing side  That will be in proportion to how much the other sides were enlarged.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a step by step process to guide you to the solution.

1.) StartFraction 9 over 6 EndFraction = StartFraction x over 16 EndFraction is computer code for

 That is the first step: set up the proportion as an equation to solve.

2.) Use Cross Product means to multiply the numerator of the first fraction by the denominator of the second fraction, and the denominator of the fraction by the numerator of the second fraction. It is given: 9(16) = 6x

3. Simplify:  means do the multiplication (or whatever makes it a "normal" number or value.   9 × 16 = 144  so that is the left side of the equation. The right side of the equation is what it was in the previous step:  6x.

Put them together in the equation:  144 = 6x

4. Divide:  To solve for x, we divide both sides of the equation by 6.

  The 6/6 on the right side "cancels" to 1, leaving x.

On the left,  144÷6 = 24

Now you have an equation that gives the value of x

24 = x

answer:  

step-by-step explanation:

here x represents the height of the pole,

and, the height of the shadow of the pole is 12 feet.

also, the angle of elevation from the top of the pole is 40°,

therefore,

by the low of sine,

which is the required equation for finding the value of x,

answer:   y=2x-3
