The picture in the attached figure

we know that
in the right triangle ABD
AB²=BD²+AD²-----> BD²=AB²-AD²
AB=8
AD=64/17
BD²=8²-(64/17)²----> 64-(4096/289)----> BD²=14400/289
BD=√(14400/289)-----> BD=120/17

sin A=BD/AB-----> sin A=(120/17)/8----> 15/17

the answer is
15/17

Answer:

b) 15/17

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that ΔABD is a right triangle with AB the hypotensue. The sine of an angle is the ratio of

opposite leg

hypotenuse

. In ΔABD you can solve for the opposite leg (BD) using the Pythagorean Theorem.

BD2 + [64/17)2 = 82

BD =

120

17

. Therefore, sin A =

15

17

Answer : C

The perimeter is all the sides added up, lets check C.

C states that 2 sides have a measure of 9, and two sides have a measure of 4.

9+9 = 18  4+4 = 8

18+8 = 26

The question states that the perimeter is 26 so this makes sense, now lets check our area.

Area = width * length

9 * 4 = 36

The question states that the area must equal 36, and it does therefore you correct answer is C
