Answer:
ΔCTA ≅ ΔDRA
Step-by-step explanation:
Triangles CTA and DRA are congruent by ASA postulate. This is because:
- ∠A is the same for both triangles (they are opposite angles)
Then, correspondent angles and sides are congruent, for example, ∠3 ≅ ∠4
We first write the word in math as x+3/5 = 5/7. Now we cross multiply our fractions and rewrite them with the LCD of 5 and 7. Our equation now looks like x + 21/35 = 25/35. We simplify our equation by subtracting 21/35 from both sides to get x = 4/35. 4/35 is already in lowest terms so it is our answer.
