This is the concept of combination. The number of letter-sequence that are possible to be formed from the letters q,u,a,k,e,s will be evaluated as follows:
Total number of letters is 6
Maximum number of letters in a word is 4
thus the number of four letter sequence that can be formed will be:
6C4
=15
The reason why we are using combination is because no letter can be used more than once in each sequence.

Suppose DK is an angle bisector of △DEF. Given: EK=2, FK=5, DF=10. Find DE.

ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

$DE=4$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been provided a graph of a triangle and we are asked to find the length of segment DE.

Angle bisector theorem states that if a ray bisects an angle of a triangle, then it bisects the opposite side of triangle into segments that are proportional to other two sides.

By angle bisector theorem we can set proportions of the given sides as:

$\frac{DE}{EK}=\frac{DF}{FK}$
