Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is given by

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

-3/10 = (-5--8)/(-5-x)

-3/10 = (-5+8)/(-5-x)

Using cross multiplication

-3 (-5-x) = 10*(-5+8)

Simplify

-3(-5-x) =10(3)

Divide by -3

-3/-3(-5-x) =10(3)/-3

-5-x = -10

Add 5 to each side

-5-x+5 = -10+5

-x=-5

Divide by -1

x=5

Step-by-step explanation: Let's first find the missing angle in the second triangle and to find this angle, remember that the sum of the measures of a triangle is 180 degrees so you should find that our missing angle is 67°.

Now, notice that we have two angles and the included side of one triangle

congruent to two angles and the included side of a second triangle.

Therefore, we can say the triangles are congruent by ASA.
