Question

Select the correct answer. two triangles, abc and cde, share a common vertex c on a grid. in triangle abc, side ab is labeled 4x minus 1, side bc is labeled 4, side ac is labeled 5. in triangle cde, side cd is labeled 5, side de is labeled x plus 2, side ce is labeled 4. if geometry symbol represented as small triangle with three sides. abc geometry congruent symbol represented as two small horizontal parallel lines and a horizontal symbol s. geometry symbol represented as small triangle with three sides. dec, what is the value of x? a. x = 8 b. x = 5 c. x = 4 d. x = 1 e. x = 2

Answer 1

Hence, the value of x is 1.

What is length?

Length is defined as the measurement or extent of something from end to end. In other words, it is the larger of the two or the highest of three dimensions of geometrical shapes or objects.

How to solve?

It can be observed that the given 2 triangles are congruent.

we know, for congruent triangles, the length of corresponding sides is equal.

Hence,

       AB = DE

       4x - 1 = x + 2

       3x = 3

       x=1

Therefore, the value of x is 1.
