Hi,

I have a question regarding a similar triangle problem.

Please find attached the picture for the problem definition.

Problem Description:

AB is parallel to CD.
Length of AB is 2.
Length of CD is x.
Distance from AB to CD is y.
Distance from AB TO E is x.

Question: Construction an equation involving x and y.

I do not have the answer choices so please bear with me.

Thanks for your help.
Srinivas

The eqn should be

2/3 = x/3-y

or 2*(3-y) = 3*x
or 6-2y = 3x
or 3x + 2y = 6
Charged up again to beat the beast :)
