In a sugar Factory all employees work a basic week of 40 hours. Any overtime worked during weekdays is paid for at time-and-a-quarter. Overtime worked on Saturday is paid
for at time-and-a-half, whilst on Sunday it is paid for at double-time. If the basic rate is
$14.60 per hour and a man worked 15 hours overtime during weekdays, 6 hours overtime
on Saturday and 5 hours overtime on Sunday, calculate:
a) his basic wage
b) his overtime wage
c) his gross wage for the week

the correct is answer is a 9-sided polygon!

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.
