Answer:

AD=15

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given figure, it can be seen that GF is parallel to DE, therefore, the two triangles that are AGF and ADE will be similar, thus by using the basic proportionality theorem, we have

\frac{FA}{AE}=\frac{GA}{AD}

Substituting the given values, we have

⇒\frac{16}{16+4}=\frac{12}{AD}

⇒\frac{16}{20}=\frac{12}{AD}

⇒AD=\frac{12{\times}20}{16}

⇒AD=15

Thus, the value of the segment AD will be 15 units.

AD is 16 because FE equals 4 and FE is equivalent to GD. so then add 4 to AG which is 12, and 12+4= 16

Segment AB falls on line 2x − 4y = 8. Segment CD falls on line 4x + 2y = 8. What is true about segments AB and CD? They are perp
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

They are perpendicular because they have slopes that are opposite reciprocals of −2 and one half.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because x = -2 and half of -2 is 1

when we use CD line and x2 we find 8x+4y=16 when added to 2x -4y=8 would equal 10x+4y = 2 1/2 xy = 16

When we use for AB line we see they are perpendicular 2 1/2 x 2 = 5 -4y = 8 shows y to be -2 and the 1/2 line leaves -2 1/2 and x also is 2 1/2.
