Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Question Image is attached.

Triangle BED and Triangle CFD are similar.

We can let the length of BD be 5x and DC 7x

We also know BC = 48, thus we can write:

5x + 7x = 48

12x = 48

x = 4

Now, Since DC = 7x, we plug in x = 4 into it.

DC = 7x

DC = 7(4)

DC = 28

Length of DC is 28

Answer:

Solution : Parabola

Step-by-step explanation:

As you can see only one variable is square in this situation, so it can only be a parabola. We can prove that it is a parabola however by converting it into standard form (x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2.

$y^2-1=4\left(x-7\right) = y^2-1=4\left(x-7\right)$
