Question

Activities for practice
In the adjoining figure,
if AB || CD || FE, then find x and AE.
line AB || line CD || line FE
[Given]
BD
DF
11
Now, AE = AC + CE
[A-C-E]
AE =​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Theorems: the ratio of the intercept

made on a transversal by three

parallel lines is equal to the ratio

of the corresponding intercept

made on any other transversal

by the same parallel lines.

BD/DF =AC /CE

8/4=12/x

x= 12×4 /8

x=6

now, AE =AC+CE

12+x

12+6

AE=18
