Answer:
14 units
Step-by-step explanation:
The angle bisector divides the sides proportionally, so you have ...
(x+4)/8 = (2x+1)/12
3(x +4) = 2(2x +1) . . . . . . multiply by 24
3x +12 = 4x +2 . . . . . . . . eliminate parentheses
10 = x . . . . . . . . . . . subtract (3x+2)
Then BD = x+4 = 10 +4.
The length of BD is 14 units.

<em>Additional comment</em>
The "triangle" cannot exist, as the side lengths are shown as 8, 12, and 35. The long side is too long. Nice math; bad geometry.
He was there for 3 hours cause 3 x 35 = 105 but 105 + 55 = 160
Hey! :)
you went on the roller coaster 7 times and the ferris wheel 5 times
Hope this helps! :)
Answer:
cot theta = -√3
Step-by-step explanation:
we are given that cos theta = - √3/2 within the range 180° < theta < 270° and
since cos theta = adj/hyp
adj = - √3
hyp = 2
Get the opposite using the pythagoras theorem
hyp^2 = opp^2 + adj^2
2² = opp² + (-√3)²
4 = opp² + 3
opp² = 4-3
opp² = 1
opp = 1
tan theta = opp/adj
tan theta = - 1/√3
Recall that cot theta = 1/tan theta
cot theta = 1/(-1/√3)
cot theta = -√3
