9514 1404 393

Answer:

  14 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle bisector divides the sides proportionally.

  BD/BA = CD/CA

  (x+4)/8 = (2x+1)/12

  3(x +4) = 2(2x +1) . . . . . multiply by 24 (the least common denominator)

  3x +12 = 4x +2 . . . . . . . eliminate parentheses using the distributive property

  12 = x +2 . . . . . . . subtract 3x

  10 = x . . . . . . . . . subtract 2

Then the length of BD is ...

  BD = x +4

  BD = 10 +4 . . . . substitute the value of x

  BD = 14

Solve for x. <br><br> x = ___
const2013 [10]

Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Similar triangles are triangles which have the same shape but not the same size. This means their angle measures are equal but their side lengths are not instead they are proportional. To solve, we will set up a proportion and solve.

A proportion is two equal ratios set equal to each other. We form the ratios by finding corresponding sides (sides which match to each other on both triangles by their position). Out ratios will be one side of the small triangle over the corresponding side on the big triangle as shown below:

\frac{little}{big} =\frac{little}{big}.

\frac{36}{36 + 12}=\frac{24}{24 + 6x - 4}

To solve the proportion, we'll cross multiply by multiplying numerator with denominator across the equal sign.

36(24 + 6x - 4)=(36+12)(24)\\36(6x + 20)=48(24)\\216x + 720 = 1152 \\216x = 432\\\frac{216x}{216}=\frac{432}{216} \\x = 2
