If we start with the assumption that segment DE is parallel to segment BC, then we the similarity condition that:
triangle ABC is similar to triangle ADE
For this to be true, the ratio corresponding sides of the two triangles must be equal. So:
5/8 =? 6/10
But
5/8 =/= 6/10
So, DE is not parallel to BC
Dont you need deductive reasoning for a proof? im not really sure though.
answer
5/12
Step-by-step explanation:
100/240 simplifies to 5/12
The answer would be 5z i think
