Answer:

<h2>x = 7</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The whole triangle and the small triangle are similar. Therefore the sides are in proportion.

We have the equation:

\dfrac{(2x+10)+3}{40+5}=\dfrac{3}{5}\\\\\dfrac{2x+13}{45}=\dfrac{3}{5}\qquad\text{cross multiply}\\\\5(2x+13)=(45)(3)\qquad\text{divide both sides by 5}\\\\2x+13=(9)(3)\\\\2x+13=27\qquad\text{subtract 13 from both sides}\\\\2x=14\qquad\text{divide both sides by 2}\\\\\boxed{x=7}

Answer:

The value of x is 7

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this, we must create a proportion using the smaller triangle (right/left) and then the whole triangle (right/left)

5/3 = 45/2x+13

Now cross multiply to solve

5(2x + 13) = 45*3

10x + 65 = 135

10x =- 70

x = 7

Help me pls the question is in the picture

Answer:

M<C = 37 degrees

M<D = 86 degrees

M<DEC = 111 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

The exterior angle theorem can be measured by the hypotenuse of a 90 degree angle. Since there is no hypotenuse in the matrix, you don't need to make it positive :)

Therefore, after using this theorem, I came to the conclusion that m/C would be 37 degrees, since I calculated the measure of the angle. I used the same tactic on m/D and m/DEC.

I hope this helps :)
