Answer:
x = 20
Step-by-step explanation:
The angles shown are alternate exterior angles.
Alternate exterior angles are congruent
This means that 46 must equal 3x - 14
Note that we've just created an equation that we can use to solve for
We now use the equation to solve for x
3x - 14 = 46
add 14 to both sides
3x - 14 + 14 = 46 + 14
simplify
3x = 60
Divide both sides by 3
3x / 3 = x
60 / 3 = 20
We get that x = 20
Let us first define Hypotenuse Leg (HL) congruence theorem:
<em>If the hypotenuse and one leg of a right angle are congruent to the hypotenuse and one leg of the another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.</em>
Given ACB and DFE are right triangles.
To prove ΔACB ≅ ΔDFE:
In ΔACB and ΔDFE,
AC ≅ DF (one side)
∠ACB ≅ ∠DFE (right angles)
AB ≅ DE (hypotenuse)
∴ ΔACB ≅ ΔDFE by HL theorem.
Y is 13 when you solve the problem
It also means that a rhombus is formed from 2 identical equilateral triangles ( 2 identical 30 - 60 - 90 triangles forms one equilateral ) and a side of that triangle measures : 30 feet.
Answer:
The perimeter of the garden : 4 * 30 = 120 feet
