Answer:

CU = 117

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangles are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

\frac{WC}{WU} = \frac{CD}{UV}

substituting in values to the ratios

\frac{26}{36x-1} = \frac{24}{132} ( cross- multiply )

24(36x - 1) = 3432 ( divide both sides by 24 )

36x - 1 = 143 ( add 1 to both sides )

36x = 144 ( divide both sides by 36 )

x = 4

CU = 36x - 1 - 26 = (36 × 4) - 27 = 144 - 27 = 117

<u>Sum of Cubes:</u>

a³ + b³ = (a + b)(a² - ab + b²)

Example: x³ + 8 → a=x, b=2

                         = (x + 2)(x² - 2x + 4)

<u>Difference of Cubes:</u>

a³ - b³ = (a - b)(a² + ab + b²)

Example: x³ - 27 → a=x, b=3

                         = (x - 3)(x² + 3x + 9)

<u>Difference of Squares:</u>

a² - b² = (a - b)(a + b)

Example: x² - 16 → a=x, b=4

                           = (x - 4)(x + 4)
