Answer:
The length of DE is 14 cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given in triangle ABC segment DE is parallel to the side AC . (The endpoints of segment DE lie on the sides AB and BC respectively). we have to find the length of DE.
Given lengths are AC=20cm, AB=17cm, and BD=11.9cm
In ΔBDE and ΔBAC
∠BDE=∠BAC (∵Corresponding angles)
∠BED=∠BCA (∵Corresponding angles)
By AA similarity rule, ΔBDE~ΔBAC
∴their corresponding sides are in proportion

Answer:
40% . The single reduction together is 40%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the bicycle cost is x before reduced price.
First 25% is reduced and again 20% further reduced.
Let the single reduction is y% if the two reduction together are equal.
Solution,
Case .1
reduction cost
%


The cost of bicycle after reduction of 25% is

cost of reduction further reduction of 20%
%


The new cost of bicycle is further reduction of 20% is



Case.2
if single reduction is done new cost of cycle is equal
%=



%
single reduction of a cycle is 40%
6b + 6p = 33.60 ; b=2.90
6(2.90) + 6p = 33.60
17.40 + 6p = 33.60
-17.40 -17.40
6p = 16.20
/6 /6
p = 2.70
