Answer:

B) 6 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

==>Given that ∆JKL ~ ∆TUV, it therefore means the ratio of proportion of the corresponding sides of ∆JKL and ∆TUV are equal.

Thus:

JK/TU = JL/TV = KL/UV

10/7.5 = 8/x = 13/9.75

Let's find x

10/7.5 = 8/x

=>Cross multiply

10*x = 8*7.5

10x = 60

Divide both sides by 10

x = 6 inches

Our answer is B) 6 inches
