Question

Each pair of figures is similar. Find the missing side.

Please help and add and explanation I don’t know how to do this

Answer 1

Explanation:

Similar figures have same ratio of corresponding sides.

Set up ratios and solve for x.

#1

• x / 54 = 6 / 36
• x / 54 = 1/6
• x = 54/6
• x = 9

#2

• x / 4 = 99 / 11
• x / 4 = 9
• x = 4*9
• x = 36

#3

• x / 10 = 6 / 60
• x / 10 = 1/6
• x = 10/6
• x = 5/3

#4

• x / 4 = 28 / 7
• x / 4 = 4
• x = 4*4
• x = 16
