What Is The Length Of Side BD?

Mathematics

This is a rectangle, meaning that all angles are right angles and all sides opposite to one another have equal length.

Since the length of CD is 24, the length of AB must also be 24.
Angle B is a right angle because this is a rectangle.

See anything? I'll you a hint. We have a right triangle with only one missing value.

What do we use to solve for missing lengths in a right triangle? The Pythagorean theorem, of course!

a^2+b^2=c^2

The length of c (the hypotenuse) is 26.
The length of a (one leg) is 24.
The length of b is unknown and we want to find it.

24^2+b^2=26^2

576+b^2=676

Subtract 576 by both sides.

b^2=100

Take square root of both sides.

b=10

The length of the missing leg is 10, meaning that the length of BD is 10.

This is what you should be needing. Enjoy!

20pts<br> how do you solve 3x-2y=14?
Furkat [3]
X(3) - Y(2) = 14. So you need numbers that will multiply by 3 and a number that multiply by 2 that will equal 14.
The x can be 10 (equals 30) and then y can be 8 (equals 16).
30 subtracted by 16 equals 14.

ANSWER:


X = 10 Y = 16
3(10) - 2(8) = 14

Hope this helped. Have a great day. A thank you and (or) brainliest is always appreciated. Goodbye!
