We can find the length of BC:

$(BC)^2+6^2=12^2\implies BC=6\sqrt3$

Then by the law of sines,

$\dfrac{\sin55^\circ}{BC}=\dfrac{\sin90^\circ}{CD}\iff CD=\dfrac{6\sqrt3}{\sin55^\circ}\approx12.7\,\mathrm{cm}$

Please help I asked this question earlier and nobody answered! :(

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

One way to tell is to put both equations into slope-intercept form. That form is usually written $y=mx+b$ where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Solve the first equation for y.

$6x+2y=5 \\ 2y=-6x+5 \\ y=-3x+5/2$

The slope of this line is -3, and its y-intercept is 5/2.

Solve the second equation for y.

$y+3x=2\\y=-3x+2$

The slope of this line is -3 and its y-intercept is 2.

The lines are parallel because they have the same slope and different y-intercepts. There is no solution to the system.
