Answer:

I would need to know the length of a pair of corresponding sides, so I could set up a proportion to solve for the unknown length. I would set the ratio of the known corresponding sides equal to the unknown measure, making sure I put corresponding measures from the triangles in the same positions in the ratios.

Answer:

I would need to know the length of a pair of corresponding sides. I would set up a proportion. I would put corresponding measures from the triangles in the same position in the ratios. Then I would cross-multiply to solve.

Answer:

x= 2/6

Step-by-step explanation:

add 3x to both sides

add 1 to both sides

divide 6 to both sides to isolate x

x = 2/6

You can start by subtracting different equations from each other.

3x + 2y + 3z = 1

subtract

3x + 2y + z = 7

2z = -6

divide by 2

z = -3

add the following two expressions together:

3x + 2y + z = 7

3x + 2y + 3z =1

6x + 4y + 4z = 8

subtract the following two expressions:

6x + 4y + 4z = 8

5x + 5y + 4z = 3

x - y = 5

^multiply the whole equation above by 3

3x - 3y = 15

subtract the following two expressions:

3x - 3y = 15

3x + 2y = 10

-5y = 5

divide each side by -5

y=-1

take the following expression from earlier:

x - y = 5

substitute y value into above equation

x - - 1 = 5

2 negatives make a positive

x + 1 = 5

subtract 1 from each side

x = 4

Therefore x = 4, y = -1, z = -3

I checked these with all 3 equations and they worked :)

(it's quite complicated, comment if you don't understand anything) :)

Please help me solve
Law Incorporation [45]
CL ≈ AE and HG≈ZR and ∠L≈∠E as both triangles are isosceles so CL=HL and AE=EZ
so HL≈AE≈ZR≈EZ so according to side angle side ΔCLH andΔ AZE both are congruent so side CH≈AZ
