The extensions of the legs AB and CD of a trapezoid ABCD intersect at point E. Find the lengths of the sides of △AED if AB=5cm,
Lynna [10]

Answer:

  AE = 15 cm; ED = 18 cm; AD = 15 cm (given)

Step-by-step explanation:

ΔBEC ~ ΔAED so ...

   AD/BC = AE/BE = (BE+AB)/BE = 1 + AB/BE

Substituting given numbers (lengths in centimeters), we have ...

  15/10 = 1 + 5/BE

  1/2 = 5/BE

  BE = 10

Similarly, ...

  1/2 = 6/CE

  CE = 12

Then the unknown sides are ...

  AE = AB + BE = 5 + 10 = 15 . . . cm

  ED = CE + CD = 12 + 6 = 18 . . . cm

Find the value of x for which ABCD must be a parallelogram.
Tems11 [23]
D. X = 8 , Y = 6
3x - 14 = x + 23x - x = 2 + 142x = 162x / 2 = 16/2x = 8
To check: 3x - 14 = x + 2 ;  3(8) - 14 = 8 + 2  ;  24 - 14 = 10  ; 10 = 10
4y - 7 = y + 114y - y = 11 + 73y = 183y / 3 = 18 / 3y = 6
To check: 4y - 7 = y + 11 ; 4(6) - 7 = 6 + 11  ;  24 - 7 = 17  ; 17 = 17
hopes it helps:)
