Answer:

A. x = 4; B. x = 6; y = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

The corresponding sides of similar figures are proportional to each other.

A. Rectangles

x/2 =16/8         Multiply each side by 2

  x = 2 × 16/8

  x =4

B. Triangles

x/18 = 4/12     Multiply each side by 12

    x = 18 × 4/12

    x = 6

y/8 = 12/4     Multiply each side by 8

  y = 8 × 12/4

  y = 24
