The answer should be x=-2
C is the answer for this question
We can say that the area of the figure equals...
5.5 by 9 rectangle - 2 by 2 triangle - 2 by 5 triangle - 9 by 3.5 triangle
5.5 by 9 rectangle = 5.5 x 9 = 49.5 un²
2 by 2 triangle = 1/2 x 2 x 2 = 2 un²
2 by 5 triangle = 1/2 x 2 x 5 = 5 un²
9 by 3.5 triangle = 1/2 x 9 x 3.5 = 15.75 un²
area of figure = 49.5 un² - 2 un² - 5 un² - 15.75 un² = 26.75 un²
answer: 26.75 un²
1/5 this is the closest answer i can think of
SSS or Side Side Side Theorem.
We have congruent triangles when corresponding sides are congruent; we call it a theorem but that's pretty much the definition of congruent triangles.
