All the triangles are similar, so the ratio of (long leg)/(short leg) is the same. The long leg of ΔADB is
.. AD = AC -DC = 20 -4
.. AD = 16
Then
.. (long leg)/(short leg) = AD/DB = BD/DC
.. 16/h = h/4
.. h^2 = 64
.. h = 8
Selection D is appropriate.
_____
You may see this again. The altitude (h) from the right angle in a right triangle is the geometric mean of segments AD and DC. That is,
.. h = √((AD)*(DC))
Answer with explanation:
A regular polygon is simple closed geometrical shape, only made up of line segments.
And Regular Tessellation, is geometrical shape, made up of regular polygons having, 3 ,or 4 or 6 sides.
It is combination of, only single kind of polygon,either, polygon having 3 sides, or ,4 sides or 6 sides.
→Regular polygon having 3 sides is Called Equilateral Triangle.
→Regular polygon having 4 sides is Called Square.
→Regular polygon having 6 sides is Called Regular Hexagon.
⇒Regular polygon having , 8 sides will not form a regular tessellation.
Option D
Answer:
distributive property
Step-by-step explanation:
The distributive property is described as
a(b + c) = ab + ac
5(12 - 4) = 5(12) - 5(4) ← is obtained using the distributive property
