How do I solve for h

Mathematics
1 answer:
WITCHER [35]3 years ago
8 0
All the triangles are similar, so the ratio of (long leg)/(short leg) is the same. The long leg of ΔADB is
.. AD = AC -DC = 20 -4
.. AD = 16

Then
.. (long leg)/(short leg) = AD/DB = BD/DC
.. 16/h = h/4
.. h^2 = 64
.. h = 8

Selection D is appropriate.

_____
You may see this again. The altitude (h) from the right angle in a right triangle is the geometric mean of segments AD and DC. That is,
.. h = √((AD)*(DC))

k0ka [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is:   " x  >  2 "  .

______________________________________________________

Step-by-step explanation:

______________________________________________________

Given the inequality:

    " 6x   >  12  "  ;

Solve in terms of "x" :

______________________________________________________

Divide each side of the inequality by "6" ;

   to isolate "x" on one side of the inequation; & to solve in terms of "x" ;

                 →  " 6x  / 6  >  12 / 6  "  ;

   to get:

                 →  "  x  >  2 " .

______________________________________________________

Hope this is helpful to you.

     Best wishes to you in your academic pursuits
