Answer:
CE = 17
Step-by-step explanation:
∵ m∠D = 90
∵ DK ⊥ CE
∴ m∠KDE = m∠KCD⇒Complement angles to angle CDK
In the two Δ KDE and KCD:
∵ m∠KDE = m∠KCD
∵ m∠DKE = m∠CKD
∵ DK is a common side
∴ Δ KDE is similar to ΔKCD
∴ 
∵ DE : CD = 5 : 3
∴ 
∴ KD = 5/3 KC
∵ KE = KC + 8
∵ 
∴ 
∴ 
∴ 
∴ 
∴ KC = (8 × 9) ÷ 16 = 4.5
∴ KE = 8 + 4.5 = 12.5
∴ CE = 12.5 + 4.5 = 17
If there are 12 movies and a person can rent three, then there are 220 different combinations they can be rented in.
Answer:
x = 11º
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Notice Parallel Lines
2. Understand Angle Relationships When Parallel Lines Are Present (e.g., alternate interior/exterior)
3. ∠CAB ≅ ∠DCA ∴ m∠CAB = 33º
4. Use exterior angle theorem: the sum of non-adjacent angles of the same triangle which the exterior angle is drawn is equal to the measure of that angle.
5. Therefore write and solve the equation 2x + 33º (sum of non-adjacent interior angles) = 5x (exterior angle).
- 2x + 33 = 5x (C.L.T or <u>C</u>ombine <u>L</u>ike <u>T</u>erms)
- 3x = 33 (inverse operations; divide by 3)
- x = 11º (remember to apply units)
