Answer:
3n+7=16
Step-by-step explanation:
3(3)+7=16
9+7=16
16=16
The second one is wrong(x=18)
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:
The answer on A P E X is bal(132)
… z =w …angle v x w = angle z x y
It follows AAA SIMILARITY Relation
For this case we have the following equation:
Let 
We have:
By definition, given an equation of the form 
The quadratic formula, to find the solution can be written as:
In this case we have:
Substituting in the quadratic formula we have:
