Answer:

x=14

PN=MN=85

Step-by-step explanation:

It is an isosceles triangle because PQ=MQ and QN is perpendicular to PM. PN=MN

8x-27=6x+1

2x=28

x=14

PN=MN=85

Answer:

<h2> $\huge \: x = 14 \:and\: \small\\ the\: length\: of\: the\: segment\: is \:85$ </h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>to understand this</h3><h3>you need to know about:</h3>

triangles congruency
equation
PEMDAS

<h3>tips and formulas:</h3>

when two triangles are congruent the included angles and sides of the triangles are equal
PN=MN

<h3>let's solve:</h3><h3> $step - 1 : define$ </h3>

$8 x- 27 = 6x + 1$

<h3> $step - 2 : solve$ </h3>

$add \: 27 \: to \: both \: sides \\ 8x - 27 + 27 = 6x + 1 + 27 \\ 8x = 6x + 28$
$cancel \: 6x \: from \: both \: sides \\ 8x - 6x = 6x - 6x + 28 \\ 8x = 28$
$divide \: both \: sides \: by \: 2 \\ \frac{2x}{2} = \frac{28}{2} \\ x = 14$

<h3>the length of the segment is</h3>

8x-27

8.14-27

Each transformation will give these following coordinates

Translation 7 units right gives E(4, 4), F(8, 3), G(10, 6), and H(8, 6) as shown in brown in the diagram below

Reflection on the y-axis gives E(3, 4), F(-1, 3), G(-3, 6) and H(-1, 6) as shown in green in the diagram below

Reflection on the x-axis gives E(-3, -4), F(1, -3), G(3, -6) and H(1, -6) as shown in red in the diagram below
