Answer:
96 square inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
From given picture we see that
BC=8 in
AD=10 in
Given that
AD=AB
Then AB=10 in
Apply Pythagorean theorem in triangle ABC to find AC






take square root

Then area of triangle ABC 

There are total 4 congruent triangles.
Then total area of the given figure = 4(24)=96 square inches.
Answer:
Similar, AA similarity, ΔAKL
Step-by-step explanation:
BC and KL are parallel. Therefore, ∠B and ∠K are alternate interior angles, and ∠C and ∠L are also alternate interior angles. Alternate interior angle are congruent, so by AA similarity, ΔABC ~ ΔAKL.
Answer:
<u>x = -8</u>
4x + 8 = 2x - 8
3x + 4 = 2x - 4
2x + 16 = x + 8
x - 1 = 2x + 7
17x + 36 = 16x + 28
13x + 2 = 12x + 11
.......
(this is infinite)
As long as it cancels out to x = -8
The answer is 0.6, 5 or higher add one more, 4 or less stays the same
