In the adjoining figure, if AB || CD || FE, then find x and AE.

Answer»

line AB || line CD || line FE [Given] 

∴ BD/DF = AC/CE  [Property of three parallel lines and their transversals] 

∴ 8/4 = 12/X 

∴ X = (12 x 4)/8

 ∴ X = 6 units 

Now, AE AC + CE [A – C – E] 

= 12 + x 

= 12 + 6 

= 18 units 

∴ x = 6 units and AE = 18 units
