4 0

Answer:

B. ΔABD, ΔADC, ΔDBC

Step-by-step explanation

Step -1 In ΔABD and ΔADC (from figure).

∠DAB=∠CAD (common in both triangles) ,

∠DBA=∠CDA =90 degree, and

∠BDA=∠DCA (rest angle of the two triangles).

therefore ΔABD similar to ΔADC (by AAA similarity theorem).

Step -2 In ΔDBC and ΔADC (from figure).

∠DCB=∠ACD (common in both triangles) ,

∠DBC=∠ADC =90 degree, and

∠CDB=∠CAD (rest angle of the two triangles).

therefore ΔDBC similar to ΔADC (by AAA similarity theorem).

Step -3 In ΔABD and ΔDBC (from figure).

∠BDA=∠BCD (because , ∠ACD=ADB from stap-1 and ∠ACD=∠BCD from figure) ,

∠DBA=∠CBD =90 degree, and

∠BAC=∠BDC (rest angle of the two triangles).

therefore ΔABD similar to ΔDBC (by AAA similarity theorem).

In the above step- ΔABD similar to ΔADC, ΔDBC similar to ΔADC and ΔABD similar to ΔDBC.

Hence ΔABD, ΔADC, ΔDBC similar to each other in the given figure.

The answer is 112 centimeters.

As this problem represents a right triangle, here we need to apply the Pythagorean Theorem.

  • h = √113² - 15²
  • h = √12769 - 225
  • h = √12544
  • h = 112 centimeters

I need some help finding the volume of a sphere with a diameter of 18.6cm. The website says the answer I got from my calculator
lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

V ≈ 3367.6 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume (V) of a sphere is calculated as

V = \frac{4}{3} πr³ ( r is the radius )

Here D = 18.6 , then r = 18.6 ÷ 2 = 9.3 , so

V = \frac{4}{3} × 3.14 × 9.3³

   = \frac{4}{3} × 3.14 × 804.357

   = \frac{4(3.14)(804.357)}{3}

   ≈ 3367.6 cm³ ( to the nearest tenth )
