25
The triangle given by 9, unknown, and 15 and the triangle given by 15, unknown, and x are similar triangles and therefore 9:15 = 15:x
X is 25 in this case

Answer:
term a is 2x²
term b is 4x
term c is 24
Step-by-step explanation:
2x² + 24 = -4x
2x² + 4x + 24 = 0
term a is 2x²
term b is 4x
term c is 24

The triangles are similar so the angles are equal
2x^2 - 2 = 10x - 2
2x^2 - 2 - 10x + 2 = 0
2x^2 - 10x = 0
2x(x - 5) = 0
2x = 0 OR x - 5 = 0
x = 0 OR x = 5
0 doesn't make sense, because IF I plug 0 into 2x^2 - 2 I get a negative number. We need to use 5 to find the angle measure
2(5^2) - 2 = 2(25) - 2 = 50 - 2 = 48 degrees or the measure of CED
