In Triangle WXY, angle X is equal to angle Y, WX is equal to 9x-11, XY is equal 4 points

to 4x+1, and WY is equal to 7x-3, find x and the measure of each side


Sagot :

Answer:

  • x = 4
  • WX = WY = 25
  • XY = 17

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle is isosceles with side WX equal to side WY:

  WX = WY

  9x -11 = 7x -3

  2x = 8 . . . . . add 11-7x

  x = 4

Then the side measures are ...

  WX = WY = 7(4) -3 = 28 -3 = 25

  XY = 4(4) +1 = 16 +1 = 17
