Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Percy is not correct because he applied the zero product property to a factored expression that was not equal to 0. He should have subtracted 12 from both sides to get x2 + 7x = 0 before factoring. The correct solutions are 0 and -7.

Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

Option D is correct.

$\triangle ADE \sim \triangle ABC$

Step-by-step explanation:

In triangle ADE and triangle ABC

From the figure:

$\angle ADE = \angle ABE$ [Angle] [Given]

$\angle DAE = \angle BAC$ [Angle]

AA(Angle-Angle) similarity criterion states that in two triangles if two pairs of corresponding angles are equal, then these triangle Similar.

By AA similarity:

⇒ $\triangle ADE \sim \triangle ABC$
