Answer:

<u><em>The length of AD is 32 feet</em></u>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Proportional distances </u>

When distances are proportions of others, we can express all of them as relative fractions until we reach some known distance and solve for the desired length

Let's call x the length of AD. Given C is the midpoint of AD, then

\displaystyle AC=CD=\frac{x}{2}

Given B is the midpoint of AC, then

\displaystyle AB=BC=\frac{AC}{2}=\frac{x}{4}

If we know BC=8 feet

\displaystyle \frac{x}{4}=8\ feet

\displaystyle x=32\ feet

The length of AD is 32 feet
