Answer:

1. BC = 18

2. m<ABC = 80°

3. x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

1. If DE = 9, therefore:

BC = 2 \times 9 = 18 (based on the midsegment theorem, DE is half the length of the third side, BC)

2. m<ADE = 80°, then,

m<ABC = 80°

This is because m<ADC and m<ABC are corresponding angles. Corresponding angles are congruent.

3. DE = 2x + 7 , and BC = 7x - 1, find BC

Thus:

BC = 2 \times DE (midsegment theorem)

7x - 1 = 2 \times (2x + 7) (substitution)

Solve for x

7x - 1 = 4x + 14

Collect like terms

7x - 4x = 1 + 14

3x = 15

Divide both sides by 3

x = 5
