Question

A pool company is creating an image for a client that has the look of a 3-D image for a family pool and a similar dog pool. Find the value of b in the drawing below:

Quadrilaterals STUV and WXYZ are shown. Side ST measures 22, side TU measures 16, side UV measures 14, side VS measures a, side

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

As the two pools, Family pool and Dog pool, are similar, their interior angles are equal and their corresponding sides are in the same proportion:

LMNO ~ PQRS

so LM/PQ = MN/QR = NO/RS = OL/SP

substituting in the given values

4/2 = 6/c = a/5 = 7/b

c = 6/2 = 3

a = 5*2 = 10

b = 7/2 = 3.5Answer:
