Answer:
- 12. x = 6, side = 83
- 13. x = 18, side = 29
- 14. x = 11, sides = 74, 74 and 37
- 15. x = 23, sides = 95, 95 and 108
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>11 is incomplete, can't solve</em>
12
<u>The triangle is equilateral, so all sides are equal, using one pair to find x:</u>
- 13x + 5 = 17x - 19
- 17x - 13x = 5 + 19
- 4x = 24
- x = 6
<u>Each side is:</u>
13.
<u>Sides are equal as triangle is equilateral</u>
- QR = 2x - 7
- RS = 5x - 61
- QS = x + 11
<u>Finding x by comparing two sides</u>
- 2x - 7 = 5x - 61
- 5x - 2x = 61 - 7
- 3x = 54
- x = 18
<u>Sides are equal</u>
14.
<u>Equal sides of isosceles triangle:</u>
- CD = DE
- 9x - 25 = 6x + 8
- 9x - 6x = 8 + 25
- 3x = 33
- x = 11
<u>Sides are</u>
- CD = DE = 9*11 - 25 = 99 - 25 = 74
- CE = 10*11 - 73 = 110 - 73 = 37
15.
<u>Equal sides of isosceles triangle WXY, WX = WY</u>
- WX = 4x + 3
- WY = 7x - 66
- XY = 5x - 7
- 4x + 3 = 7x - 66
- 7x - 4x = 3 + 66
- 3x = 69
- x = 23
<u>Sides are:</u>
- WX=WY = 4*23 + 3 = 95
- XY = 5*23 - 7 = 108
Answer:
E and B
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
The segment BC joining the midpoints of 2 sides of the triangle is
Half the length of the third side, that is
x + 31 = 2(x + 19)
x + 31 = 2x + 38 ( subtract x from both sides )
31 = x + 38 ( subtract 38 from both sides )
- 7 = x → A
