you'll first need to understand the symbols, I've attched a cheat sheet :)
you'll need to see if AB is linked to CD reversed.
If not then it's not A
For B you'll have to see if the angles are parralel to each other.
and for C you'll have to see if the angles are the same.
and D is the same as C
so the answer is ab=cd
<h2>now you understand :)</h2>
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Side z is the adjacent, since it is next to the angle you are solving for.
Side x is the opposite, since it is opposite the angle you are solving for.
The side measuring 14 is the hypotenuse, since it is across from the right angle.

You and your 2 nieces bakes 27 cupcakes. This means that there were 27 cupcakes to be distributed evenly between the 3 of you. So divide 27 by 3 to get your answer.
27 ÷ 3 = 9.
This means that each of you would get 9 miniture cupcakes to take home.
