Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to have side x + 4 equal side 3x - 8. If you plug 6 into both equations, then you get x + 4 = 910and 3x - 8 = 10. The last side of the triangle equals 6. You then add all three sides together to get 25. 10 + 10 + 5 = 25.

Answer 2

This is an isosceles triangle (a triangle with 2 congruent/equal sides and 2 congruent angles)

If you look at the triangle, most likely side AB and BC are congruent.

Since the sides are suppose to be the same/equal to each other, you can do this:

AB = BC

x + 4 = 3x - 8       Subtract x on both sides

4 = 2x - 8    Add 8 on both sides

12 = 2x      Divide 2 on both sides

x = 6

You need to find AC.

AC = x, since you know x = 6, side AC is 6 units
