look carefully and tell me about the relation between BAC and CAD

anas.p · Answer

CAD=BAC

anas.p · Answer

because they are equal halves

anas.p · Answer

no...
Equate the two equations...
11x+5=7x+8

anonymous · Answer

Is it 11x+5+7x+8=180
or 11x+5+7x+8=90

anas.p · Answer

get it? you equate the two equations...
