Answer:
Option b is the correct answer
Step-by-step explanation:
You found CD from the Pythagorean theorem to be ...
... CD = √(5² -2²) = √21
Since triangle ADC ~ triangle ACB, the ratios of corresponding sides are the same:
... AC/AD = AB/AC
... AB = AC²/AD
... AB = 5²/2 = 12.5 . . . . . . . the base of the overall triangle
_____
Then the area (A) is ...
... A = (1/2)bh
... A = (1/2)(12.5)(√21) ≈ 28.64 square units
_____
As you see here, the altitude of a right triangle divides it into three similar triangles. From smallest to largest, they are ...
... ADC ~ CDB ~ ACB
You can figure this using AAA similarity, since the smallest and largest triangles listed above share an acute angle vertex (∠A). That, together with the right angle, means all angles are congruent. After that, then you know ∠ACD ≅ ∠CBD, so you can show the middle sized triangle is similar to the other two.

Answer:
60ft
Step-by-step explanation:
I have not done this kind of work in a while but if you scale each side of the square by 6 is should increase to a perimeter of 60ft
Answer:
According to the question,
3p=-0.027
By transposing '3' to the RHS, we get
p=0.027/3
= p=-0.009
So in this question p=-0.009
