Answer:
BC = 6.8
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance from A to B, then from B to C, is the same distance as from A to C.
Thus,
AB + BC = AC
AB = 8x + 8
BC = 4x + 2
AC = 22
AB + BC = AC
(8x + 8) + (4x + 2) = 22
Expanding the parenthesis:
8x + 8 + 4x + 2 = 22
8x + 4x + 8 + 2 = 22
12x + 12 = 22
Subtracting 12 from both sides:
12x = 10
Dividing both sides by 12:
x = 10/12 = 1.2
x = 1.2
We're looking for BC. As we know,
BC = 4x + 2
Let's now put in x = 1.2 into this equation:
BC = 4x + 2
BC = 4 * 1.2 + 2
Since 4 * 1.2 is 4.8:
BC = 4.8 + 2
BC = 6.8
Answer: BC = 6.8
Answer:
11.25
Step-by-step explanation:
Since AB and CD are parallel, ∠D is congruent to ∠A and ∠C is congruent to ∠B. Therefore the two triangles are similar by the AA postulate. Now, the corresponding sides are in proportion
Since AE ↔ DE and AB ↔ CD
So, AE/CD = AB/CD
AE/5 = 9/4
AE = 9(5)/4
= 45/4 = 11.25
