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))
Answer:
start at the origin (0,0) then move up 5 (Don't count the origin as the first move up). Now your point is (0,5)

Hi there,
Sol:
Length of the swimming pool = 260 m
Breadth of the swimming pool = 140 m
Let the height of the water in the swimming pool after pouring water be h meters.
Volume of the water poured = 54600 m3
l x b x h = 54600
260 x 140 x h = 54600
h = (54600) / (260 x 140)
h = 1.5 m = 150 cm
Hope it helps
The correct answer is 90 miles per hour
Explanation:
The first step to know how fast Emily needs to drive to get 10 minutes earlier is to determine the distance from her work to her home. This can be calculated by using the information provided (speed and time). The process is shown below:
speed = distance ÷ time
distance = speed x time
distance = 60 miles per hour x 0.5 (30 minutes represent 0.5 hours)
distance= 30 miles
Now, using the same formula let's calculate the speed for 20 minutes (30 minutes - 10 minutes earlier = 20 minutes)
speed = distance ÷ time
speed = 30 miles ÷ 0.333 (20 minutes represents 0.333 hours as 20 minutes is 1/3 of an hour)
speed= 90 miles per hour
