What is the length of AC¯¯¯¯¯ ? Enter your answer in the box. units Triangle A B C with vertical side A C. Vertex B lies to the
right of side A C. Angle A and angle C are marked congruent. The length of side A C is labeled as x. The length of side A B is labeled as x plus 4. The length of side B C is labeled as 3 x minus 8.
he side AC = x ;we need to find x; since ∠A = ∠C , It's an isosceles triangle . i.e ,the sides opposite to the angles ( AB and CB ) are also equal. thus ,side AB = x+4 ;CB = 3x-8 ;thus AB = CB or ,x+4 = 3x-8 ,2x = 12 ,x = 6 ; therefore the side AC is 6.
I think the correct answer among the choices listed above is option C. Alexa is constructing a circle inscribed in a triangle. She has partially completed the construction. Her next step is to use the arc markings to determine the radius to construct the circle.
