<h3>What is a triangle?</h3>

A triangle is 2 dimensional shape with 3 sides and angles. The types of triangle that we have are;

  • Equilateral triangle
  • Scalene triangle
  • Isosceles

The given triangle is a scalene triangle since <u>none of the sides are equal</u>

From the figure shown, we can see that the mea<em>sure of DF is equivalent to  CE and EB</em>

Since CB = CE + EB

Given the following parameter

DF = 4cm

CE = EB = DF = 4cm

Substitute

CB = 4cm + 4cm

CB = 8cm

Hence the measure of CB from the given figure is 8cm
