Answer:
12 miles
Explanation:
Two triangles are similar if their two corresponding angles are congruent (equal) to each other.
if their two corresponding angles are of equal this also means that the third angle is also equal and corresponding.
ΔABC ∼ ΔEDC (two corresponding angles are congruent)
Therefore to find the sides, we use the following proportions:

BC = x miles, CD = 6 miles. Therefore BD = BC + CD = (6 + x) miles
DE = 8 miles, AB = 12 miles
Therefore:

With regulations, an agency holds a public hearing and after that hearing makes a decision on either adopting, changing, or rejecting the regulation. Laws are also rules that govern everyone equally, while regulations only affect those who deal directly with the agency that is enforcing them.
Answer:
The West African Examinations Council (WAEC)
Explanation:
The West African Examinations Council (WAEC) says it is set to introduce a device that will henceforth check collusion during its examinations across the country.
The council’s Head, Media and Information, Mr classic said this in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Wednesday in Lagos.
He said that during the 2020/2021 examination, it was discovered that collusion was gradually replacing other previous forms of malpractices recorded by the council including impersonation.
“We are planning to introduce software called Item Differential Programme. This device is one that would assist in detecting collusion in any given examination.
“The introduction of the device is based on the high level of collusion that we discovered during the 2014/2015 examination.
“The device will be able to detect if candidates have jointly answered a particular multiple choice question, which we refer to as “item”.
“For instance, if out of 100 candidates, 80 per cent of them go for a particular item which might be wrong as their answer, the device will immediately flag such item and aggregate the candidates,” he explained.
Ojijeogu noted that the device, if approved by council, might be introduced at its 2020 November/December diet of the West Africa Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) for private candidates
