Answer:
n = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Since ∆A is similar to ∆B, therefore, the ratio of their corresponding sides would be equal.
Thus:
[tex] \frac{10}{n + 2} = \frac{6}{3} [/tex]
[tex] \frac{10}{n + 2} = 2 [/tex]
Multiply both sides by (n + 2)
[tex] \frac{10}{n + 2}(n + 2) = 2(n + 2) [/tex]
[tex] 10 = 2n + 4 [/tex]
Subtract 4 from each side
[tex] 10 - 4 = 2n + 4 - 4 [/tex]
[tex] 6 = 2n [/tex]
Divide both sides by 2
[tex] \frac{6}{2} = \frac{2n}{2} [/tex]
[tex] 3 = n [/tex]
n = 2
