Segment AD is 4, and segment AE is 3. This is because AB is 8, and half of 8 is 4, and then AC is 6, and half of 6 is 3.

Answer:

Segment AD is 4, and segment AE is 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

In triangle ABC,

AB = 8 unit,

AC = 6 unit,

We have to prove :

[tex]DE=\frac{BC}{2}{/tex]

By the Midpoint Theorem, the segment joining two sides of a triangle at the midpoints of those sides is parallel to the third side and is half the length of the third side.

Thus, for proving the required statement we need to prove D and E are midpoints of AB and AC respectively,

That is, AD = DB and AE = EC

∵ AB = 8 ⇒ AD + DB = 8 ⇒ AD + AD = 8 ⇒ 2AD = 8 ⇒ AD = 4

Similarly,

2AE = 6 ⇒ AE = 3

Hence, LAST option is correct.

What is 20×40+3×9÷3+4
-Dominant- [34]
<span><span /><span>The answer to that problem is 813. When you are given a problem like this, you can answer it by using the MDAS technique. MDAS stands for multiplication, division, addition, and subtraction. Since you are following the MDAS technique, you are asked to answer the equation based on MDAS order. To put this simply, look at the example below:

     20x40+3x9/3+4
     800+3x9/3+4
     800+27/3+4
     800+9+4
     809+4
     813</span></span>  

You can clearly see the MDAS order by following the bold text.

Our club has 25 members, and wishes to pick a president, secretary, and treasurer. In how many ways can we choose the officers,
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

13800

Step-by-step explanation:

The order of the members is important (because each selected member will receive a different position), thus we then need to use the definition of permutation.

There are 25 members, of which 3 are selected.

\begin{array}{l}n=25 \\r=3\\end{array}

Evaluate the definition of a combination:

P(25,3)=\frac{25 !}{(25-3) !}=\frac{25 !}{22 !}=25 \cdot 24 \cdot 23=13800
