Answer:
12 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
AB and DC are parallel to each other, so they are the same length. Set their lengths equal to each other and solve for x
4x = 7x - 9
4x - 7x = 7x - 7x -9
-3x = -9
-3x/-3 = -9/-3
x = 3
Now solve for AB.
AB = 4x
AB = 4(3)
AB = 12

You don't say whether this is a right triangle or not.
Assuming it is a right triangle, then we use the Pythagorean Theorem to determine the length of the hypotenuse:
(hypo) = (length of third side) = √(12^2 + 4^2) = √(144+16) = √160 = 4√10.
This is approx. 12.65 inches. Since this does not match any of the possible answer choices, we'll have to take a different approach to answering this question.
Given that 2 sides of the given triangle are 12 and 4 inches, respectively, we see that the 3rd side has to be longer than 8 inches; otherwise we'd have three line segments on the same line, not forming a triangle.
By this reasoning, 9 inches is the only possible answer that could be correct. With sides 12, 9 and 4 inches, the triangle would be obtuse and appear quite flat, but not be part of a straight line as with a third side of 8.
{ (-2, 0), (-4, -3), (2, -9), (0, 5), (-5, 7)}
The range:
{ y | y = -9, -3, 0, 5, 7 }
He should have 9 pieces just do 72 /8 and you will have 9
