Two numbers are in a ratio of 3: 6 their sum is 63 find the bigger number

is this part of a question or something

answer

d. 10

explanation

the distance from point y to wx is the height of the triangle.

using pythagoras theorem,

group similar terms to get,

this implies that,

take positive square root of both sides to get,

this implies that,

ca = ec

cpctc makes it so that corresponding parts of the triangle you proved to be equal are equal, the other options aren't part of the part of the triangles you proved to be equal.

the 8 in 8,420 is in the thousands place so it's value is 8 thousand.

the 8 in 6,870 is in the hundreds place so it's value is 8 hundred.

divide 8000 by 800 to find the answer:

8000 / 800 = 10

the 8 in 8,420 is 10 times greater than the 8 in 6,870
