Question

What values of t and u make CDE =QRS

Answer 1

t = 9 , u = 7

Explanation:

for the 2 triangles to be congruent , then corresponding sides must be congruent, that is

QR = CD , so

5t = t + 36 ( subtract t from both sides )

4t = 36 ( divide both sides by 4 )

t = 9

and

DE = RS , so

6u = u + 35 ( subtract u from both sides )

5u = 35 ( divide both sides by 5 )

u = 7
