Question

Need help,kinda confused on this. Use the rectangle to find the lengths of the following sides if AC=26 and BC=10. Added picture.

Answer 1

1) Diagonals of a rectangle bisect each other, so AW=13.

2) Since diagonals of a rectangle are congruent, AC=BD. Then, since diagonals of a rectangle bisect each other, DW=13.

3) Diagonals of a rectangle are congruent, so BD=26.

4) Opposite sides of a rectangle are congruent, so AD=10.

5) Using the Pythagorean theorem, BA=24.
