Respuesta :

Remember that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of their corresponding sides is proportional

In this problem

triangle ABC is similar t triangle XYZ

that means

AB/XY=BC/YZ=AC/XZ

substitute given values

4.8/3.2=a/5.2=6/y

Part 1

Determine the length side a

so

4.8/3.2=a/5.2

a=(4.8/3.2)*5.2

a=7.8

Part 2

Find out the length of side y

4.8/3.2=6/y

y=(6/4.8)*3.2

y=4
