If AE is x+50, then the whole thing must be x=50. 
if a portion of that, CE, is x+32, then the rest of it, AC, must be x+18.
Because no matter what X is, 32+18=50.

<h2>Answer:</h2>

                             AC= 18

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

It is given that:

Points A,B,C,D, and E are collinear and in that order.

AE = x+50 and CE = x+32.

Now, we know that the length of the line segment AC is equal to the length of the line segment AE minus the length of the line segment CE.

i.e.

AC=AE-CE

i.e.

AC= x+50-(x+32)

AC=x+50-x-32

( Since if the sign before the parentheses is negative then the terms comes out of the parentheses with a opposite sign )

Hence, on combining the like terms we have:

AC=x-x+50-32

AC=0+18

Hence, we get:

               AC= 18

Which of the following is not part of the Triangle Proportionality Theorem?
natka813 [3]

Answer:

A. AA Similarity Theorem  . True

B. Two sides divided proportionally. True

C. A parallel line to one side of a triangle.  True

D. A perpendicular line to one side of a triangle. False

Step-by-step explanation:

The Triangle Proportionality Theorem says that if a line is parallel to one side of a triangle, then it splits the other two sides into proportional sections.

Now, here the given statements are:

<u>A. AA Similarity Theorem </u>

TRUE, as the angles opposite to equal sides are equal.

And if lines are divided proportionally, both the triangles are Similar by AA similarity theorem.

<u>B. Two sides divided proportionally. </u>

TRUE,as the other two sides of the triangle are divided proportionally by the parallel line.

<u>C. A parallel line to one side of a triangle. </u>

TRUE, as the parallel line divides the other two  non- parallel sides in equal proportions.

<u>D. A perpendicular line to one side of a triangle.</u>

FALSE, this part is not required anywhere in the given theorem result.
