2. In the following figure, triangle ABC and triangle DEF are similar. What is the value of x ? Triangle ABC and triangle DEF are shown. Side AB measures 10 millimeters. Side BC measures 4 millimeters. Side CA measures 8.5 millimeters. Side DE is not labeled. Side EF measures 12 millimeters. Side FD measures x. (1 point) x = 16.5 mm x = 24 mm x = 25.5 mm x = 30 mm



Answer :

FD/CA = EF/BC
x/(8.5 mm) = (12 mm)/(4 mm)
x = (8.5 mm)*(12/4)
x = 25.5 mm . . . . . . . . . . . the 3rd selection
