Answer 2

@Will.H

Answer 3

Can't see the figure

Answer 4

oh yeah

Answer 5

EXCEPT the sides are 17 and 9 ! and the hypotenuse is 2x-3 and x+5

Answer 6

They are congruent figures which means BC = EF
3x - 4 =

Answer 7

3x - 4 = x + 6
Solve for x

Answer 8

Actually you just need the equation. And that's the equation
Reasoning would be
Since the triangles are congruent and we know that those sides are corresponding then BC = EF
Hence
3x - 4 = x + 6

Answer 9

x=8

Answer 10

2x-3=x+5 ***********

Answer 11

Mate you solved incorrectly.

Answer 12

X would equal to 5

Answer 13

And you can find the measure of EF or the other side by substituting x = 5 in the expression

Answer 14

Mate... it's 2x-3=x+5 !!!

Answer 15

equals 8

Answer 16

It is 8, Will

Answer 17

3x - 4 = x + 6
That's the equation

Answer 18

Right?

Answer 19

Correct, don't get me confused :(

Answer 20

nooooo omg!!!!!!!!!! i said that those are the incorrect numbers and stuff

Answer 21

Either my equation is incorrect or yours
And I'm seeing the attachment file that u posted and pretty sure those r the data

Answer 22

No, it is not like that.
3x - 4 = x + 6 wrong

Answer 23

the 2 triangle sides are 17 and 9 and the hypotenuse are 2x-3 and x+5

Answer 24

I didn't read that sorry
Well then. Same solution just chang the equation

Answer 25

Good eye 3mar

Answer 26

x=8

Answer 27

Don't mention that!
It Happens to all of us!

Answer 28

Correct! @RisingToTop

Answer 29

2x - 3 = x + 5
X = 8
To find tbe length of either sides use substitution method

Answer 30

thanks so much bruv's

Answer 31

You are welcome!
