GIVEN

Two triangles ABC and ACD where two corresponding sides of the two triangles are equal.

SOLUTION

The two triangles have equal sides such that:

[tex]\begin{gathered} AB=AD \\ and \\ AC=AC \end{gathered}[/tex]

By this, the length of the remaining sides BC and DC are related such that the side opposite the greater angle has the greater length.

Since [tex]BC>DC[/tex]Substitute known values into the inequality:

[tex]\begin{gathered} DC=11x-33 \\ BC=77 \\ \therefore \\ 77>11x-33 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Solving the inequality:

[tex]\:x<10[/tex]

Recall that the side DC has to be greater than 0. Therefore:

[tex]\begin{gathered} 11x-33>0 \\ \therefore \\ x>3 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Combining both solutions:
