The two triangles (ABC and ADE) can be shown to be similar (which I'll do below). Their corresponding parts are also similar. 
Step One
Prove Similarity.
A is common to both triangles              Construction
<ABC = <ADE                                       Given as right angles.

By the AA Theorem both triangles are similar.

Step Two
Find x

AD is to AB as DE is to x
AD = 3 + 4 = 7
AB = 3
DE = 6
7 / 3 = 6/x Cross multiply
7x = 3 * 6
7x = 18 Divide by 7
x = 18/7
x = 2.571 <<<<< answer

Por determinante:
5...1...1
1...0...1 = 0 --> se o determinante for igual a 0, os pontos estarão alinhados.
3...3...1

calculando: (5 x 0 x 1 + 1 x 1 x 3 + 1 x 3 x 1) - (1 x 0 x 3 + 1 x 1 x 1 + 3 x 1 x 5) = 
0 + 3 + 3 - 0 - 1 - 15 = 
6 - 1 - 15 = 
5 - 15 = - 10 --> como não deu zero, os pontos não estão alinhados.

Find m∠DEC (the picture is not drawn to scale).
pochemuha

Answer:

M∠DEC equals 123º.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of a triangle's three angles always equal 180º. The exterior angle, x, equals the two non-adjacent interior angles.

180 - {(x - 45)+(x - 12)} = m∠DEC

m∠DEC + x = 180

<u>(x - 45) + (x - 12) = x</u>

Solving for x:

(x - 45) + (x - 12) = x

x - 45 + x - 12 = x                             Remove parenthesis

2x - 57 = x                                       Combine like terms

2x = x + 57                                      Add 57 to both sides

<u>x = 57</u><u>                                             Subtract x from both sides</u>

Finding m∠D:

x - 45 = ?

<u>57 - 45 = </u><u>12º                                          </u>

Finding m∠C:

x - 12 = ?

<u>57 - 12 = </u><u>45º                                           </u>

<em>** </em><em>(Checking x: 12 + 45 = 57) </em><em>**</em>

<em>Finding </em>m∠DEC:

AC is a straight line, and because straight lines are equivalent to 180º, we subtract 57 from 180:

180 - 57 = 123º

Hope this helps,
