Problem 3: Find \( x \)

Step 1: Identify Equal Sides

The triangle has two equal sides (marked with ticks), so the two given expressions for the sides are equal: \( 8x - 37 = 5x + 17 \).

Step 2: Solve for \( x \)

Subtract \( 5x \) from both sides: \( 8x - 5x - 37 = 17 \)
Simplify: \( 3x - 37 = 17 \)
Add 37 to both sides: \( 3x = 17 + 37 \)
Calculate: \( 3x = 54 \)
Divide by 3: \( x = \frac{54}{3} = 18 \)

Step 1: Identify Equal Sides

In the isosceles triangle (since \( MP = PO \) and \( PN \) is perpendicular), \( MN = ON \). So \( 4x + 19 = 6x - 7 \).

Step 2: Solve for \( x \)

Subtract \( 4x \) from both sides: \( 19 = 2x - 7 \)
Add 7 to both sides: \( 26 = 2x \)
Divide by 2: \( x = 13 \)

Step 3: Find \( MN \)

Substitute \( x = 13 \) into \( 4x + 19 \): \( 4(13) + 19 = 52 + 19 = 71 \)

Step 1: Identify Equal Segments

Since \( AB = BC \) (ticks), \( AD = CD \). So \( 9x - 15 = 7x - 1 \).

Step 2: Solve for \( x \)

Subtract \( 7x \) from both sides: \( 2x - 15 = -1 \)
Add 15 to both sides: \( 2x = 14 \)
Divide by 2: \( x = 7 \)

Step 3: Find \( CD \)

Substitute \( x = 7 \) into \( 7x - 1 \): \( 7(7) - 1 = 49 - 1 = 48 \)

Answer:

\( x = 18 \)
