Using the triangle pictured, find the measure of angle C. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

Step-by-step explanation:

already calculated A=53

B=72

C=180-(53+72)=180-125=55°

good job you smart son of a gun you are smarter that einstein. 7

c.   x=2.4cm

step-by-step explanation:

similar triangles are triangles which have the same shape but not the same size. this means their angle measures are equal but their side lengths are not instead they are proportional. to solve, we will set up a proportion and solve.

a proportion is two equal ratios set equal to each other. we form the ratios by finding corresponding sides (sides which match to each other on both triangles by their position). out ratios will be one side of the small triangle over the corresponding side on the big triangle as shown below:

.

to solve the proportion, we'll cross multiply by multiplying numerator with denominator across the equal sign.
