Answer:

13 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The legs of an isosceles trapezoid are congruent, then

x + 8 = 48 - 7x ( add 7x to both sides )

8x + 8 = 48 ( subtract 8 from both sides )

8x = 40 ( divide both sides by 8 )

x = 5

Then

leg = x + 8 = 5 + 8 = 13

Answer:

perimeter is length plus length width plus width

area is length times width

Step-by-step explanation:

(x+4)+(2x-23)=perimeter

(x+4)(2x-23)

Which statement is an example of the symmetric property of congruence?

BabaBlast [244]

The <u>correct answer</u> is:

$\text{D) If }EFG \cong HJK, \text{ then } HJK \cong EFG.$

Explanation:

The symmetric property states that if two quantities are equal (or congruent), you can "flip" them around the equals sign (or congruence sign).

This means since EFG is congruent to HJK, then HJK is congruent to EFG.
