call the larger triangle abc

then the smaller triangle cde is similar to abc (all angles are equal, aaa).  

ab is the side that is 36, and we wish to find de, the side corresponding to ab

area_cde = area_abc - area_cde --> area_abc / area_cde = 2

let x=length of de

ratio of areas = (ratio of sides)^2

thats not a system of equations, that is a solution

80° is the measure of gh

step-by-step explanation:

circle f is congruent to circle j

we have two circle with center f and j.

both circles are congruent. the radius of the circle would be equal.

see the attachment for the circle.

we are given ∠efd ≅ ∠gjh

therefore, arc (ed) = arc (gh)     (∴ circle f is congruent to circle j)

but ∠dfe=80°=arc (ed)

therefore, arc (gh) = 80°

thus, 80° is the measure of gh

hello from mrbilldoesmath!

answer:   x (x+6)^2, choice b

discussion:

factor x out of the equation:

x^3 + 12x^2 + 36x = x (x^2 + 12x + 36).

note that 6+6 = 12 and 6*6 = 36 so the above factors into:

x (x+6)^2

which is choice b
