Answer:

65 cm

Explanation:

Hey There!

So the congruency statement ABC = TUV

states that side AB = side TU side BC = side UV and side CA = side VT

The given side lengths are BC and UV which are congruent to each other so we set up an equation to solve for x

7x+2=6x+11

step 1 subtract 2 from each side

2-2 cancels out

11-2=9

Now we have

7x=6x+9

step 2

subtract 6x from each side

7x-6x=x

6x-6x cancels out

now we have 9=x so x=9

Now we just plug in 9 to x in (6x+11)

to find the length of the given side length

6x9=54

54+11=65

Because side VU and side BC are congruent they both equal 65 cm

So we can conclude that the length of the given sides is 65 cm
