(-2,2), (4,-4). There are two common ways to attack this problem. The distance formula and Pythagorean theorem. I would use Pythagorean. make line segment cd the hypotenuse of a right triangle. legs would be 6 units and 6 units. a^2+b^2=c^2. 6^2+6^2=c^2. c^2=36+36. c^2=72. c=sq root of 72. c=8.5

Answer:

$a=22.5\ units$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is equal

In this problem

If polygon RSUPE is similar to polygon KQUIC

then

$\frac{RS}{KQ}=\frac{RE}{KC}$

substitutes the values and solve for a

$\frac{a+2}{14}=\frac{17.5}{10}\\ \\10a+20=14*17.5\\ \\10a=245-20\\ \\a=225/10\\ \\a=22.5\ units$
