Solve for X on both equations
2x - 2 < -12
Add two on both sides
2x < -10
Divide by two on both sides
2 < -5
2x + 3 > 7
Subtract three on both sides
2x > 4
Divide by two on both sides
x > 2
A. x < -5 or x > 2

a) To find the missing side length on triangle A, we can use the Pythagorean theorem.
a^2 + 12^2 = 13^2
a^2 + 144 = 169
a^2 = 25
a = 5 cm
5 and 12 = 5 and 12
b) The two triangles are congruent because they have two side lengths in common. If at least two side lengths are the same on two triangles, then they are congruent. In addition, these triangles have one angle in common as well.
Hope this helps!! :)
