c. identity property of division
d. commutative property of addition

Means-extremes property

Step-by-step explanation: A proportion is an equation that states two ratios are equal. For example, is an example of a proportion.

In the given proportion, a and d are called extremes and b and c are called means. The first property that I will be talking about states that the product of the extremes equals the product of the means.

This idea is called the means-extremes property.

So if , we know that ad = bc by the means-extremes property.

step-by-step explanation:

x = 17

step-by-step explanation:

in the given figure, two triangles are inscribed in a circle where ∠bae ≅ ∠dae which makes the side be and de equal so we can write it as:

3x - 24 = x + 10

solving this equation for x to get:

3x - x = 10 + 24

2x = 34

x = 34/2

x = 17

therefore, the value of x = 17.
