<u>Given</u>:
The given triangle is a similar triangle.
The length of the hypotenuse is 18 units.
The length of the leg is a.
The length of the part of the hypotenuse is 16 units.
We need to determine the proportion used to find the value of a.
<u>Proportion to find the value of a:</u>
We shall find the proportion to determine the value of a using the geometric mean leg rule.
Applying the leg rule, we have;
Substituting the values of hypotenuse, leg and part, we get;
Thus, the proportion used to find the value of a is
Hence, Option D is the correct answer.
Since ABCD is a parallelogram, the opposite sides will be parallel and equal,
Consider that AC acts as a transversal to the parallel lines AB and CD, so we can write,
So by the ASA criteria, the triangle AED is congruent to the triangle CEB,
Then the corresponding parts of the triangles will be equal,
Hence Proved.
