X is -0.7 because if you distribute 3(x+2), you’ll get 3x+6. Subtract both sides by 6 and you’ll get 3x=-2.1. Finally divide both sides by 3 and you’ll get x= -0.7. If you want to make sure you can plug -0.7 into the equation. So it would be 3(-0.7+2). -0.7+2=1.3. Multiply it by 3 and you’ll get 3.90. Hope this helps.

Geometry - Triangle d) In the given figure, BE = EC and CE is the bisector of ZACB. Prove that ZBEC = ZACD. E B D С

Llana [10]

Answer:

Let m∠BCE = x

Then m∠ACE = x as well since CE is bisecting ∠ACB.

m∠ACD + x + x = 180° ⇒
m∠ACD = 180° - 2x

Consider ΔBEC

Since BE = EC, the opposite angles are congruent:

∠BCE ≅ ∠CBE

Then:

m∠CBE = m∠BCE = x

Find the angle BEC:

m∠BEC = 180° - (x + x) = 180° - 2x

Comparing the above we see that:

m∠BEC = m∠ACD

Find the exact length of the third side

Mumz [18]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that 13 is the hypotenuse. With this we can use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve this problem.

Let the third side be x.

13^2=12^2+x^2

169=144+x^2

169-144=x^2

25=x^2

x=5

Solved.
