Answer:triangle BCD is similar to triangle ACE (side, angle C, side)

AC = 2 BC

therefore AE = 2 BD

therefore

4x+20 = 2 (3x+5) solve that

Eight is added to a number and the sum is doubled, the result is -11 less than the number. Find
inna [77]
If you don’t know what a number is, you should substitute it for x and make an equation with the information you have been given. This gives:

(x + 8) x 2 = x - 11

Then, solve:

2x + 16 = x - 11

2x = x -27

x = -27

This can then be checked by using the number in the original text.

-27 + 8 = -19

-19 x 2 = -38

-38 is 11 less than -27.

Hope this helps :)

A circle has a radius of 10 inches. Find the approximate length of the arc intersected by a central angle of 2π/3
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer: Option 'C' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Radius of circle = 10 inches

Central angle is given by

\frac{2\pi }{3}

As we know the formula for " Length of an arc " :

Length of arc is given by

l=r\theta\\\\l=10\times \frac{2\pi}{3}\\\\l=10\times \frac{2}{3}\times \frac{22}{7}\\\\l=20.95\ inches

Hence, length of an arc is 20.95 inches.

Hence, Option 'C' is correct.

Plz help me with my geometry asap 50 pts and brainliest NO SCAMMING OR I WILL REPORT
bearhunter [10]

Step-by-step explanation:

1. You already got the first step, where D is the midpoint of AC and AB is congruent to BC, since it's given.

2. AD will be congruent to DC, via the definition of a midpoint (a midpoint is the middle point of a line segment, and it splits the segment into two congruent parts)

3. BD is equal to BD, via reflexive property. ( It's a shared side between the two triangles)

4. that means that ΔADB ≅ΔCDB via SSS rule.

5. ∠ABD ≅∠CDB by CPCTC (corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent)

Hope this helps! :)
