Multiple Choice

#13: Given each pair of figures are similar, set up and solve a

proportion to find the missing side.

x = 6.6

x = 1.36

x = 3.6

x = 7.2

Multiple Choice

#14: Given each pair of figures are similar, set up and solve a

proportion to find the missing side.

x = 16

x = 36

x = 25

Multiple Choice

#15: Given each pair of figures are similar, set up and solve a

proportion to find the missing side.

x = 1.67

x = 5.4

x = 3.75

x = 3.6

You can set up a proportion to find a missing side length.

Figures will be similar if:
- Their corresponding angles are congruent (equal)
- Their corresponding sides are proportional
