“In a triangle, a line parallel to one side divides the other two sides into segments of lengths 5 cm and x cm, and 8 cm and 12 cm respectively. Use the Side Splitter Theorem to find the value of x. Show all work. A triangle has sides of lengths 9 cm and 15 cm, and a line parallel to the base divides the other two sides into segments of lengths 4 cm and y cm. What is the length of y using the Side Splitter Theorem? Show all work.”
