What is the length of AC

|AC| = 144

Step-by-step explanation:

The larger triangle (on the left) and the smaller one (on the right) are similar.

Therefore the following equation of ratios is correct:

  x               7

=

156 - x       84

Then 84x = 7(156) - 7x, or

         91x = 1092, or x = 12

Then the length of AC is 156 - x, or 144

step-by-step explanation:

option a is correct.

step-by-step explanation:

scale factor: it is used to find proportional measurements.

proportions means having the same ratio.

scale factor is the ratio of the model measurement to the actual measurement in a simplest form.

or we can say that the ratio of any two corresponding lengths in two similar geometric figures

if the scale factor is more than 1, then it is an enlargement,

if the scale factor less than 1, then it is a reduction.

given the two geometric figure:

by definition of proportions, we have
