In The Diagram Shown Overline AD And Intersect At Point E Overline AB And Overline CD Are Parallel Given The Segment Length Shown In The Picture Which Of The Fo class=

Sagot :

Answer:

11.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Since AB and CD  are parallel, ∠D is congruent to ∠A and ∠C is congruent to ∠B.  Therefore the two triangles are similar by the AA postulate.  Now, the corresponding sides are in proportion

Since AE ↔ DE and AB ↔ CD

So, AE/CD = AB/CD

AE/5 = 9/4

AE = 9(5)/4

     = 45/4  = 11.25
