Triangles WXZ and XYZ that share side XZ with right angle XZW, WZ equals 16, XZ equals 12, and YZ equals 9 Since segment XZ is perpendicular to segment WY, angles WZX and XZY are both right angles and congruent. The proportion shows the corresponding sides are proportional, so the triangles are similar by the SAS Similarity Postulate.

*check attachment for the figure being described

16/9

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the SAS Similarity Postulate, if triangle WXZ and triangle XYZ are similar, it means the included angles are equal to each other or congruent to each other, while two corresponding sides are proportional.

Thus, we have:

WZ/YZ =XW/XY

<XZW is congruent to <XZY =90°

Thus, the proportion of the side would be:

WZ/YZ = 16/9

i got 86 for this
