Answer: AD/CD = 2/5

Explanation:

Triangle ABC is similar to triangle DEC on the basis of AA(Angle angle)

Recall, if 2 triangles are similar, it means that the ratio of their corresponding sides are equal. Thus,

AB/DE = BC/EC = AC/DC

From the information given,

AB/DE = 7/5

Thus,

AC/DC = 7/5

AD + CD = AC

(AD + CD)/DC = 7/5

AD/DC + CD/DC = 7/5

AD/DC + 1 = 7/5

AD/DC = 7/5 - 1

AD/DC = 2/5

AD/CD = 2/5
