Sagot :

Answer:

x = 31

Step-by-step explanation:

The two triangles are similar, so [tex]\triangle{NPO} \sim \triangle{YZO}[/tex].

Vertex N matches up with vertex Y.

Vertex P matches up with vertex Z.

Vertex[tex]\frac{NO}{YO}=\frac{1}{4}\\\\\frac{x}{124}=\frac{1}{4}\\\\4x=124\\\\x=31[/tex] O matches up with itself.

Corresponding sides are in proportion.  To find the proportion between the two triangles, you use known sides from each.

[tex]\frac{NP}{YZ}=\frac{23}{92}=\frac{1}{4}[/tex] meaning the small triangle is 1/4 the size of the large one.

To find  x , notice that it is side NO which corresponds to side YO from the large triangle.
