anonymous · Answer

CE/AC

anonymous · Answer

to be equivalent to the others it should be AC / CE

anonymous · Answer

same picture different question
AC = 4, AE = 7, AD = 10, what is the length of AB?
answers:
1 3/7
2 1/2
5 5/7
17 1/2

anonymous · Answer

4/7 = AB/ 10
AB = 40/7 = 5 5/7

anonymous · Answer

theres 2 more questions with that same picture..can u please answer them?

anonymous · Answer

i wont answer them but i'll point you in the right direction - i'd like you to be able to do them yourself

anonymous · Answer

ok..BC parallel to DE. BC = 6, DE = 9 Which of the following could be the lengths of AB and BD respectively?

anonymous · Answer

the large and small triangles are similar so corresponding sides are in same proportion.
so BC/DE = 6/9 = AB / AD   
and BD = AD- AB

anonymous · Answer

so whats the answer
