Hi!
A topic is just a general thing you discuss, with no true moral ending you take away from it. A theme, on the other hand, wants to communicate a life lesson.
Hopefully, this helps! =)
When a perpendicular is dropped from the right-angle (C) to the opposite side AB, the metric relations apply:
BD*BA=a^2 ..........................(1)
AD*AB=b^2...........................(2)
BD*DA=DC^2........................(3)
Given AD=6, AB=24, using metric relation (2) above, we have
b^2=6*24=144
=>
b=sqrt(144)=12
By the way, we conclude that this is a 30-60-90 triangle because b/AB=(1/2)=sin(B) => B=30 degrees.
Answer: b=12
Minimum point of an absolute value function is when f(x) = 0
0 = <span>|2x - 1|
2x</span> - 1 = 0
2x = 1
x = 1/2
Minimum point is (1/2, 0)
