To Calculate the cost of <span>The cost of fertilizing, we need to Calculate first the Area of the Triangle.
</span>the Area of the Triangle = 1/2 x base x altitude = 1/2 x (14+√17) x 68 = 524.08 <span>square foot
</span>The cost of fertilizing = the cost of the square foot x the total area = 0.25x524.08 = 131 <span>$</span>
∠BDC and ∠AED are right angles, is a piece of additional information is appropriate to prove △ CEA ~ △ CDB
Triangle AEC is shown. Line segment B, D is drawn near point C to form triangle BDC.
<h3> What are Similar triangles?</h3>
Similar triangles, are those triangles which have similar properties,i.e. angles and proportionality of sides.
Image is attached below,
as shown in figure
∡ACE = ∡BCD ( common angle )
∡AED = ∡BDC ( since AE and BD are perpendicular to same line EC and make right angles as E and C)
∡EAC =- ∡DBC ( corresponding angles because AE and BD are parallel lines)
Thus, △CEA ~ △CDB , because of the two perpendiculars AE and BD.

There are going to be two solutions because the "biggest" x is x^2 but you can factor to find what they actually are.
