Answer: triangle sum , x= 9
Step-by-step explanation:
The triangle angle sum theorem states that the 3 interior angles of a triangle sum to 180 degrees. Add all of the angle measures together and set equal to 180. (3x-4)+(5x-7)+(13x+2) = 180. Combine like terms. 21x -9 = 180. Add 9 to both sides. 21x= 189. Divide both sides by 21. X = 9
Divide both sides by 5
e^x=3.152 take the natural log of both sides...
x=ln(3.152)
x≈1.148
You need to find x first but it has to be x×x-4x

Answer:
14 units
Step-by-step explanation:
The angle bisector divides the sides proportionally, so you have ...
(x+4)/8 = (2x+1)/12
3(x +4) = 2(2x +1) . . . . . . multiply by 24
3x +12 = 4x +2 . . . . . . . . eliminate parentheses
10 = x . . . . . . . . . . . subtract (3x+2)
Then BD = x+4 = 10 +4.
The length of BD is 14 units.

<em>Additional comment</em>
The "triangle" cannot exist, as the side lengths are shown as 8, 12, and 35. The long side is too long. Nice math; bad geometry.
