Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Geometric Mean Theorem - Altitude Rule</u>
The <u>altitude</u> drawn from the vertex of the right angle perpendicular to the hypotenuse separates the <u>hypotenuse</u> into <u>two segments</u>. The ratio of one segment to the altitude is equal to the ratio of the altitude to the other segment:

From inspection of the given diagram:
- altitude = FD = 9
- segment 1 = CD = 5
- segment 2 = DE =


Substitute the found value of x into the expression for DE:

Answer:
<h2> D=C/4</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that elevation of the cities are
A=72 feet
C=24 feet
D=1/4 of C
The expression for the elevation of city D is
D=C/4
substituting C=24 in the expression we have
D=24/4
D=6
The answer is positive because the elevation is above sea level
