Answer and explanation please

x=17, y=12

Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure we know that,

Angle CDB = 4x-5

Angle BDE = 10y-3

Angle DEA= 97-2x

Though we are NOT given that line segments BD and AE are parallel, we may assume so by the construction of the triangle.

Hence, BD II AE and are cut by the transversal CE,

Hence,

Angle CDB = Angle CEA  {Corresponding angles are equal}

As we observe that,

Angle CDB and Angle BDE form a linear pair, they are supplementary.

Hence,

Angle CDB + Angle BDE = 180

points are handed out whenever you post answers.

brainliest answers are handed out by the person asking the question, so whether your answer is picked depends entirely on whether the asker bothers to pick

if you're asking about your rank, it depends on having a certain number of points and a certain number of brainliest answers. for example, at the time of this writing, i have 44338 points out of 15000 needed for the next (nearly triple the requirement! ) but i only have 24 out of 50 required brainliest answers. this number decays, meaning after a certain amount of time (i think about a month), the total number of brainliest answers you've earned doesn't count toward this total. (i've been stuck at the same rank for a long

the lesson to learn here is that you shouldn't worry about points or rank. chances are, no matter how good an answer you may provide, your efforts will go mostly unnoticed unless you focus on the newest/most active questions that get posted.

step-by-step explanation:

given that there are two triangles j'k'l' and jkl>

the former is got by dilating the second one.

when drawn on a grid, (graph paper) coordinates of vertices of first triangle is

(6,12)j, (9,6)k and (12,9)l

side jk has length = distance between j and k

=

side j'k'=distance between j' and k'

=

ie j'k'l' has sides 1/3 of that of corresponding sides of jkl.

hence scale factor of 1/3 is used to get j'k'l'from jkl
