You can put this solution on YOUR website! Since triangle ABC & triangle DFE are congruent, their corresponding sides should also be congruent. So,
m(AB) = m(DE) = 10. So,
m(DE) = 10 = x+2. So,
10-2 = x+2-2
8 = x
x = 8*2
x = 16 units. Answer. If you have any doubt, feel free to mail gsmani9@yahoo.com.
God bless you.
