The answer is the SAS postulate. The two triangles have two pairs of corresponding, congruent sides, and the included angles are congruent. And thus, triangles XYZ and ABC are congruent by the SAS postulate.
15x15= 225
15x + 105= 225
15x= 225-105
15x= 120
X=8
X+ (x+1) + (x+2) + (x+3)…etc all the way up too +(x+14)=225
The first five numbers of the set: 8, 9, 10, 11, 12
After 5 years, value doubles.
Hence after 5 years, value is 250 x 2 = 500
After another 5 years, value doubles.
500 x 2 = 1000
Ans: $1000
