To prove a similarity of a triangle, we use angles or sides.
In this case we use angles to prove
∠ACB = ∠AED (Corresponding ∠s)
∠AED = ∠FDE (Alternate ∠s)
∠ABC = ∠ADE (Corresponding ∠s)
∠ADE = ∠FED (Alternate ∠s)
∠BAC = ∠EFD (sum of ∠s in a triangle)
Now we know the similarity in the triangles.
But it is necessary to write the similar triangle according to how the question ask.
The question asks " ∆ABC is similar to ∆____. " So we find ∠ABC in the prove.
∠ABC corressponds to ∠FED as stated above.
∴ ∆ABC is similar to ∆FED
Similarly, if the question asks " ∆ACB is similar to ∆____. "
We answer as ∆ACB is similar to ∆FDE.
Answer is ∆ABC is similar to ∆FED.
X = 13
( x + 4) / 51 = (2x - 7) / 57
585 = 45x
585/45 = 45x/45
x = 13

communitive property
Answer:
x=3
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Add two to 7 and inverse the minus 2
3x=7+2 3x=9
Step 2: Divide each number by 3.
3x/3=x and 9/3=3
so x=3
