Answer:
We start with the equation:
A: 3*(x + 2) = 18
And we want to construct equation B:
B: X + 2 = 18
where I suppose that X is different than x.
Because in both equations the right side is the same thing, then the left side also should be the same thing, this means that:
3*(x + 2) = X + 2
Now we can isolate the variable x.
(x + 2) = (X + 2)/3
x = (X + 2)/3 - 2
Then we need to replace x by (X + 2)/3 - 2 in equation A, and we will get equation B.
Let's do it:
A: 3*(x + 2) = 18
Now we can replace x by = (X + 2)/3 - 2
3*( (X + 2)/3 - 2 + 2) = 18
3*( (X + 2)/3 ) = 18
3*(X + 2)/3 = 18
(X + 2) = 18
Which is equation B.
Answer:
The triangles are congruent by congruency theorem SAS.
Step-by-step explanation:
Side-Angle-Side, as it suggests, is when a triangle is congruent by the order of congruent side, congruent angle, and another congruent side. If named certain ways, they can be congruent. Since the question does not provide a specific way of naming the triangles, we can assume that any way is allowed. 2.5 and 2.5 are congruent, followed by angles D and G which have the congruent angle markers. The congruent angles are followed by 1.7 and 1.7, making the triangles congruent by Side-Angle-Side.
A = 8B
A + B = 180
8B + B = 180
9B = 180
B = 20
A = 8 * 20 = 160
