To prove that segment DE is parallel to segment BC and half its length, Translate ABCDE left 4 units and down 2 units
<h3>What is a transformation?</h3>Transformation is the movement of a point from its initial location to a new location. Types of transformation are <em>translation, rotation, reflection and dilation.</em>
Dilation is the increase or decrease in the size of a figure.
To prove that segment DE is parallel to segment BC and half its length, Translate ABCDE left 4 units and down 2 units.

Answer:
CE = 17
Step-by-step explanation:
∵ m∠D = 90
∵ DK ⊥ CE
∴ m∠KDE = m∠KCD⇒Complement angles to angle CDK
In the two Δ KDE and KCD:
∵ m∠KDE = m∠KCD
∵ m∠DKE = m∠CKD
∵ DK is a common side
∴ Δ KDE is similar to ΔKCD
∴
∵ DE : CD = 5 : 3
∴
∴ KD = 5/3 KC
∵ KE = KC + 8
∵
∴
∴
∴
∴
∴ KC = (8 × 9) ÷ 16 = 4.5
∴ KE = 8 + 4.5 = 12.5
∴ CE = 12.5 + 4.5 = 17
