Answer:

Option C.  [tex]\frac{9}{6}=\frac{15}{x}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

  we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is equal and its corresponding angles are congruent

In this problem

[tex]\frac{AB}{DE}=\frac{BC}{CD}[/tex]

substitute the values

[tex]\frac{15}{x}=\frac{9}{6}\\ \\x=15*6/9\\ \\x= 10\ ft[/tex]

C) C. 9/6=15/x
