Given that wa = 5x – 8 and wc = 3x + 2, find wb. a. wb = 5 b. wb = 8 c. wb = 10 d. wb = 17

The rest of the question is the attached figure.
============================================
Δ AYW a right triangle at Y ⇒⇒⇒ ∴ WA² = AY² + YW²
And AY = YB ⇒⇒⇒ ∴ WA² = YB² + YW²   → (1)
Δ BYW a right triangle at Y ⇒⇒⇒ ∴ WB² = BY² + YW²  → (2)
From (1) , (2)  ⇒⇒⇒ ∴ WA = WB  →→ (3)
Δ CXW a right triangle at Y ⇒⇒⇒ ∴ WC² = CX² + XW²
And CX = XB ⇒⇒⇒ ∴ WC² = XB² + XW²   → (4)
Δ BXW a right triangle at Y ⇒⇒⇒ ∴ WB² = XB² + XW²  → (5)
From (4) , (5)  ⇒⇒⇒ ∴ WC = WB  →→ (6)
From (3) , (6)
WA = WB = WC
given ⇒⇒⇒ WA = 5x – 8 and WC = 3x + 2
∴  5x – 8 = 3x + 2
Solve for x ⇒⇒⇒ ∴ x = 5
∴ WB = WA = WC = 3*5 + 2 = 17

The correct answer is option D. WB = 17

10feet apart then both

The answer is part a: use
