Question

In the following figure find the values of x & y
​

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 13   ;  y = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 7 = 32                        ;          2y + 5 = 25

3x = 39                                         2y = 20

x = 13                                              y = 10

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given figure

BC = CD

=> 3x-7 = 32

=> 3x = 32+7

=> 3x = 39

=> x = 39/3

=> x = 13 cm

In triangle ABC and triangle CDE,

Angle BAC = Angle CED

BC = CD

Angle BCA = Angle ECD

So ABC is congruent to CDE

Now, AB = DE

=> 25 = 2y+5

=> 2y+5 = 25

=> 2y = 25-5

=> 2y =20

=> y = 20/2

=> y = 10 cm

x = 13 cm and y = 10 cm
