×+1/×+3=15/21
×+1=15(×+3)/21
×+1=15×+45/21
21(×+1)=15×+45
21×+21=15×+45
21×-15×=45-21
6×=24
×=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Statements Reasons

----------------------------------------------------------------

1. ∠V ≅ ∠Y Given

2. WZ bisects ∠VWY Given

3. ∠VWZ ≅ ∠YWZ Definition of Angle Bisector (2)

4. WZ ≅ WZ Reflexive Property

5. ΔVWZ ≅ ΔYWZ AAS Theorem (1,3,4)

**In case you didn't know the definitions**

Angle Bisector - A line, segment or ray that divides an angle into two congruent angles

Reflexive Property - X = X

AAS Postulate - If two angles and a non-included side of one triangle are congruent to the corresponding parts of another triangle, then the triangle's are congruent

If AD = 5x + 3, TD = x + 27, what is AD?

Eddi Din [679]

The question is incomplete, but if we assume that you mean AD = TD , we have :

AD = TD ===》 5x + 3 = x + 27

===》 4x = 24

===》 x = 6

_________________________________

AD = 5 × ( 6 ) + 3

AD = 30 + 3

AD = 33
