Question

What is the value of x? Enter your answer in the box. mm Triangle V T K with segment T Y such that Y is on segment V K, between V and K. Angle V T Y is congruent to angle Y T K. V T equals 57 millimeters, V K equals x, Y K equals 68 millimeters, and T K equals 129.2 millimeters.

Answer 1

Answer:

  VK = x = 98 mm

Step-by-step explanation:

TY is the bisector of angle T, so it divides segments of the triangle proportionally. That is, ...

  VY/VT = KY/KT

  VY = VT·KY/KT = (57 mm)·68/192.2 = 30 mm

Then

  VK = VY + YK = 30 mm + 68 mm

  VK = 98 mm
