Answer 1

It's c. I literally just answered it

Answer 2

Answer:

Option: C is the correct answer.

$\dfrac{h}{4}=\dfrac{12}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Clearly from the diagram shown we could see that the angle formed at the base is the same.

Let the angle be theta (θ).

Hence, in the small right angled triangle ΔACB we have:

$\tan \theta=\dfrac{AC}{CB}\\\\\tan \theta=\dfrac{4}{5}------(1)$

Similarly in the right angled triangle ΔEDB we have:

$\tan \theta=\dfrac{ED}{DB}\\\\\tan \theta=\dfrac{h}{12}------(2)$

Hence, on equating equation (1) and equation (2) we have:

$\dfrac{4}{5}=\dfrac{h}{12}\\\\\dfrac{h}{4}=\dfrac{12}{5}$

Hence, option:C is the correct option.
