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.

The perimeter of a triangle is 28 feet. One side of the triangle is 5 feet longer than the second side. The third side is 8 feet
Hitman42 [59]

side one is 5 side two is 10 and the third side is 13. 28 is not divisible by three so if one side i 5 ft longer and another side is 8 ft longer then you add them 5+8=13 then subtract 13 from the perimeter 28-13=15 then divide 15 by 3 and get 5 5 5. add 5 (5+5) (5+8).
