Two triangles are similar if their only difference is its size.

With this in mind we have to find wich sides are corresponding to each other.

First triangle:

From the arrow we notice that the corresponding sides are:

[tex]\begin{gathered} 7\rightarrow y \\ 5\rightarrow x \\ 3\rightarrow2 \end{gathered}[/tex]

From the last corresponding side we know that the ratio is

[tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

This means that the smaller triangle has dimensions of 2/5 the size of the big triangle.

With this in mind we have:

[tex]\begin{gathered} x=(5)(\frac{2}{3})=\frac{10}{3}=3.3 \\ y=(7)(\frac{2}{3})=\frac{14}{3}=4.6 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Second triangle:

The corresponding sides in this case are

[tex]\begin{gathered} 24\rightarrow x \\ 18\rightarrow y \\ 30\rightarrow20 \end{gathered}[/tex]

In this case the ratio is

[tex]\frac{20}{30}=\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

Therefore

[tex]\begin{gathered} x=24\cdot\frac{2}{3}=16 \\ y=18\cdot\frac{2}{3}=12 \end{gathered}[/tex]
