BC is 14
DC and BC are equal
3y + 5 = 5y - 1
-3y
5 = 2y - 1
+1
6 = 2y
÷2
3 = y
y=3
Substitute y=3 into 5y-1, to find BC
5y-1
5x3 - 1
15 - 1
14
Hope this helps!
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let corner angle at C=α
tanα=12;BC=x;AC=xsecα
By a standard property of right angled triangles,
(xsecα)2=x(x+2)
simplify
x=BC=2tan2α=8.
The sketch is not proportionately drawn.Also
AB=4,AC=45–√
