Answer:

BC = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

In the picture attached, the missing triangles are shown:

Data

  • AB = 10
  • BD = 5
  • DE= 12
  • Then, AD = 10-5 = 5

As a consequence of the "Side Splitter" Theorem:

AD/DE = AB/BC

Replacing with data and solving for BC

5/12 = 10/BC

BC = 10*12/5 = 24

The length of BC is 8 units.

The given figure is image 1.

From the image: AD = AB + BD = 10 + 5 = 15.

From the image triangle ABC and ADE are similar.

So their sides will be in the same ratio.

[tex]\frac{10}{15}=\frac{BC}{12}\\\\BC=\frac{10}{15}\cdot12\\\\BC=8[/tex]
