Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
In the question, we're given . Therefore, the measure of these two angles must be equal.
To find the value of , set these two angles equal to each other:
Add 26 and subtract from both sides:
Divide both sides by 3:
Since was labelled as
, substitute
to find its measure:
You can also substitute into the label of angle D as angle A is congruent to angle D for easier calculations (
).
Answer:
CU = 117
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the triangles are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is
=
substituting in values to the ratios
=
( 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
