Can you solve this? Please ( 15+ points)

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all we will start with the brackets inside the equation,

1.

Now we can multiply 2 by all the values inside the parentheses

2.

I just wanted to confirm that the big X is a variable?

Fact: Did you know that there are about 4 types of parenthese: ( ) - round brackets, [ ] - square brackets, { } - curly brackets, and < > - angle bracket.

< xcy ≅ < xby

step-by-step explanation:

in δcax and δbax,

so, δcax ≅ δbax (side-angle-side or sas)

since δcax ≅ δbax, we can conclude < acx ≅ < abx

in δacy and δaby,

so, δacy ≅ δaby (side-angle-side or sas)

since δacy ≅ δaby, we can conclude < acy ≅ < aby

now,

< acy ≅ < aby

=> < acx + < xcy ≅ < abx + < xby

=> < acx + < xcy ≅ < acx + < xby   (since < acx ≅ < abx already proved above)

subtracting < acx from both sides, we get

< acx + < xcy -< acx ≅ < acx + < xby -< acx

cancelling out < acx and -< acx from both sides, we get

< xcy ≅ < xby (proved)
