Solve for x. Triangles below are similar.
a) 13
b) 10
c) 4
d) 3

Answer:
the answer is 4 (option C)
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the triangles are similar, and in triangle UTV both sides are equal, we can consider QTR also has two equal sides.
therefore, the equation forms:
13x + 3 = 55
13x = 55 - 3
13x = 52
x = 52/13
x = 4
