Given :-

  • Two triangles with their two angles equal .

To Find :-

  • Measure of AC .

Answer :-

Here in ∆ABC and ∆EDC ,

  • \angle CAB = \angleCED (given )
  • \angle CBA = \angleCDE (given)

Therefore by AA similarity criterion , we can say that ∆ABC ~ ∆EDC . Also we know that corresponding sides of similar triangles are proportional . So ,

→ AC/EC = BC/DC

→ AC/9 = 8/12

→ AC = 8/12 * 9

→ AC = 6

<u>Hence</u><u> the</u><u> </u><u>measure</u><u> of</u><u> </u><u>side </u><u>AC </u><u>is </u><u>6</u><u> </u><u>.</u>

I hope this helps.
