Option B:

\overline{A B}=\overline{D E}

Solution:

In the given figure \triangle A B C \cong \triangle D E C.

If two triangles are similar, then their corresponding sides and angles are equal.

By CPCTC, in \triangle A B C \ \text{and}\ \triangle D E C,

\overline{AB }=\overline{DE} – – – – (1)

\overline{B C}=\overline{EC} – – – – (2)

\overline{ CA}=\overline{CD} – – – – (3)

\angle ACB=\angle DCE  – – – – (4)

\angle ABC=\angle DEC  – – – – (5)

\angle BAC=\angle EDC  – – – – (6)

Option A: \overline{B C}=\overline{D C}

By CPCTC proved in equation (2) \overline{B C}=\overline{EC}.

Therefore \overline{B C}\neq \overline{D C}. Option A is false.

Option B: \overline{A B}=\overline{D E}

By CPCTC proved in equation (1) \overline{AB }=\overline{DE}.

Therefore Option B is true.

Option C: \angle A C B=\angle D E C

By CPCTC proved in equation (4) \angle ACB=\angle DCE.

Therefore \angle A C B\neq \angle D E C. Option C is false.

Option D: \angle A B C=\angle E D C

By CPCTC proved in equation (5) \angle ABC=\angle DEC.

Therefore \angle A B C\neq \angle E D C. Option D is false.

Hence Option B is the correct answer.

\Rightarrow\overline{A B}=\overline{D E}

55. If 3x = 4y, the value of (x + y)^2 : (x - y)^2 is:<br>​
ladessa [460]

Answer:

\large\boxed{(x+y)^2:(x-y)^2=49}

Step-by-step explanation:

3x=4y\qquad\text{subtract}\ 3y\ \text{from both sides}\\\\3x-3y=y\qquad\text{distributive}\\\\3(x-y)=y\qquad\text{divide both sides by 3}\\\\x-y=\dfrac{y}{3}\qquad(*)\\------------------\\3x=4y\qquad\text{add}\ 3y\ \text{to both sides}\\\\3x+3y=7y\qquad\text{distributive}\\\\3(x+y)=7y\qquad\text{divide both sides by 3}\\\\x+y=\dfrac{7y}{3}\qquad(**)\\------------------

(x+y)^2:(x-y)^2=\dfrac{(x+y)^2}{(x-y)^2}\qquad\text{use}\ \left(\dfrac{a}{b}\right)^n=\dfrac{a^n}{b^n}\\\\=\left(\dfrac{x+y}{x-y}\right)^2\qquad\text{substitute}\ (*)\ \text{and}\ (**)\\\\=\left(\dfrac{\frac{7y}{3}}{\frac{y}{3}}\right)^2=\left(\dfrac{7y}{3}\cdot\dfrac{3}{y}\right)^2\qquad\text{cancel}\ 3\ \text{and}\ y\\\\=(7)^2=49

The hypotenuse of a right triangle is 10 inches long. One of the legs is 2 inches longer than the other one. If x is the length
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

The equation is

X²+2x-48 = 0

Shorter one is 6 inches

Other side= 8 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for a right angle triangle normally is

A² = B² + C²

Where A = hypotenuse

Then B and C are the order sides of the triangle.

This time

Hypotenuse= 10 inches

The shorter one is X

While the other one is X+2

The equation

10²= x² +(x+2)²

100= x² + x² + 4x +4

100 - 4 = 2x² +4x

96= 2x² +4x

48 = x² +2x

X²+2x-48 = 0

Solving for x

X² +8x-6x-48= 0

X(x+8)-6(x+8)=0

(X-6)(x+8)= 0

X= 6 or x= -8

Definitely x is posiy

So x= 6

Shorter one is 6 inches

Other side= 6+2= 8 inches
