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.
