Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Use proportions to solve.
Corresponding sides have same ratio.
<u>Question 1</u>
- (6x + 3)/17 = (8x - 1)/21
- 21(6x + 3) = 17(8x - 1)
- 126x + 63 = 136x - 17
- 10x = 80
- x = 8
<u>Question 2</u>
- (x + 8)/21 = 32/28
- x + 8 = 21*8/7
- x + 8 = 24
- x = 24 - 8
- x = 16
Answer: B
The letters have the same positions in the figure names.
Answer:
Given: DB = 7.2 cm, AE = 1.8 cm and EC = 5.4 cm and DE || BC.
DB
AD
=
AC
AE
[by basic proportionality theorem which states that if a line is drawn parallel to one side of a triangle the other two sides in distinct points, then the other two sides are divided in the same.
7.2
AD
=
5.4
1.8
AD=
5.4
7.2×1.8
AD=
10
24
⟹AD=2.4cm
