Answer:

B. ΔABD, ΔADC, ΔDBC

Step-by-step explanation

Step -1 In ΔABD and ΔADC (from figure).

∠DAB=∠CAD (common in both triangles) ,

∠DBA=∠CDA =90 degree, and

∠BDA=∠DCA (rest angle of the two triangles).

therefore ΔABD similar to ΔADC (by AAA similarity theorem).

Step -2 In ΔDBC and ΔADC (from figure).

∠DCB=∠ACD (common in both triangles) ,

∠DBC=∠ADC =90 degree, and

∠CDB=∠CAD (rest angle of the two triangles).

therefore ΔDBC similar to ΔADC (by AAA similarity theorem).

Step -3 In ΔABD and ΔDBC (from figure).

∠BDA=∠BCD (because , ∠ACD=ADB from stap-1 and ∠ACD=∠BCD from figure) ,

∠DBA=∠CBD =90 degree, and

∠BAC=∠BDC (rest angle of the two triangles).

therefore ΔABD similar to ΔDBC (by AAA similarity theorem).

In the above step- ΔABD similar to ΔADC, ΔDBC similar to ΔADC and ΔABD similar to ΔDBC.

Hence ΔABD, ΔADC, ΔDBC similar to each other in the given figure.

Solve for m. 2= m/2 - 7 whats the answer?
xz_007 [3.2K]
Linear equations are all solved the same way. Figure out the operations performed on the variable. Undo those in reverse order.

Here, the variable is
- divided by 2
- has -7 added.

In reverse order, we undo these operations by
- adding 7
- multiplying by 2.

Whatever we do to one side of an equation, we must also do to the other side. That is how the equal sign remains valid.

2 = m/2 -7
2 +7 = m/2 -7 +7 . . . . . add 7
9 = m/2 . . . . . . . . . . . . simplify
2*9 = 2*m/2 . . . . . . . . multiply by 2
18 = m . . . . . . . . . . . . . simplify. (You know that 2/2 = 1, and m*1 = m.)

The answer is m = 18.

_____
Check:
.. 2 = 18/2 -7
.. 2 = 9 -7 . . . . . . . true. The answer checks OK.
