@Will.H
OpenStudy (will.h):
Bn = Be
BN = 3.8
OpenStudy (will.h):
Make sense?
OpenStudy (will.h):
Bn and Be are congruent corresponding sides
So if you find the length of one the other will have the same length
OpenStudy (devonhoward15):
so its 3.8 not 4.8 correct?

@Will.H
OpenStudy (will.h):
Correct
OpenStudy (will.h):
As I explained because BN = BE
Since BN= 3.8 then BE will also equal to 3.8
OpenStudy (rcp031):
What if the question was Triangle BFE similar to Triangle CNB will answer be still 3.8 @Will.H
OpenStudy (will.h):
No. That case will be proportional formula to be applied

@rcp031 do you think he is wrong?
OpenStudy (will.h):
Mate don't tag me if you don't trust me
OpenStudy (rcp031):
No, @Will is correct He saying that, we have to look which side is similar in relation to the given triangle in question.
OpenStudy (devonhoward15):
i trust you... it seems that he doesnt
OpenStudy (will.h):
Not similar.. Corresponding.
Similarity is different
