In the bridge shown below, angle ABC similar to angle XYZ. If AB = AC = 25 feet, BC = 20 feet, and YZ = 10 feet, then what is XZ?

Sagot :

to find XZ, we can set up a proportion using the similar triangles:

AB/BC = AC/XZ

25/20 = 25/XZ

Solving for XZ:

XZ = (25 * 20) / 25

XZ = 20 feet

therefore, XZ is 20 feet.
