Question

Can you find the missing segment to the triangle in the attached image

Answer 1

44

Explanation:

The side-splitter theorem states that if a line intersects two sides of a triangle and is parallel to the third side of the triangle, it divides those two sides proportionally. This means that:

22/x = 10/20

Isolating x:

22*20 = 10*x

x = 22*20/10

x = 44
