Answer:
See explanation below
Step-by-step explanation:
BD - diagonal Added Construction
m∠CBD = m∠ADB Alternate Interior Angles Theorem
BD ≅ DB Reflexive Property
m∠A = m∠C Opposite ∠'s Congruent Theorem
ΔABD ≅ ΔCDB AAS or SAS
BC ≅ DA CPCTC
AC - diagonal Added Construction
m∠BCA = m∠CAD Alternate Interior Angles Theorem
AC ≅ CA Reflexive Property
m∠B = m∠D Opposite ∠'s Congruent Theorem
ΔABC ≅ ΔCDA AAS or SAS
AB ≅ CD CPCTC
Let x be the 1st number
x + 9 be the second number
Equation:
x + x+9 = 171
Solution:
2x + 9 = 171
2x = 171 - 9
2x = 162
x = 81
x + 9 = 90
81 + 90 = 171
