Question

Fast answer please, medal and fan.
DF bisects angle EDG. Find FG.

Answer 1

\(n+5=2n-6\)

Answer 2

@StudyGurl14 @Brill @boldjon

Answer 3

In that equation do I still need to combine like terms? @Mehek14

Answer 4

In the picture, we have two triangles. Since EDG was bisected, that means angle EDF and angle FDG are equal. We also see that the triangles contain 90 degree angles as well. Since two of three angles are the same, this means the third angle must also be the same. Because the triangles contain the same angle measurements, they are similar. Because they both share the same side, and all three angles, then the two triangles must be congruent.

This means that EF = FG

or, equivalently

n + 9 = 4n - 6

Solve this equation for n, then plug that value into FG

Answer 5

ye
so move the variables to one side
and other numbers to another side

Answer 6

do u know what n is?

Answer 7

@boldjon
it's n + 5 = 2n - 6
not n + 9 = 4n - 6

Answer 8

no think ur wrong

Answer 9

n=5

Answer 10

Then put 5 in for 9 on 4n-6

Answer 11

@boldjon look at the measurements in the picture

Answer 12

so 14

Answer 13

oh lol
\

Answer 14

one side is n - 5 and the other is 2n - 6
how did you get n + 9 = 4n - 6

Answer 15

is n 11?

Answer 16

i have idea how i messed up

Answer 17

ye 11

Answer 18

k so put 11 for n and solve

Answer 19

that's give u ur answer ^_^
