Answer:
DC = 10.93 cm , AC = 9.8 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
From trigonometry;
⇒ Tan 60 = AB/BD
⇒AB = BD Tan 60 ( where BD = 4 cm )
⇒ AB = 6.93 cm
Also, AB=BC , therefore;
⇒ BC = 6.93 cm
⇒ Cos 60 = BD/AD
⇒ AD = BD/ Cos 60 = 4/Cos 60
⇒ AD = 8 cm
From Pythagoras theorem;
⇒ =
+
=
+
⇒ AC = = 9.80 cm
⇒ DC = BD + BC = 4 + 6.93
⇒ DC = 10.93 cm
