Answer:

The correct option is E. 8

The value of h is 8 unit.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Δ BAD ~ Δ CBD

AC = 20

DC = 4

∴ AD = AC - DC=20-4=16

To Find:

h = ?

Solution:

Δ BAD ~ Δ CBD      ................Given

If two triangles are similar then their sides are in proportion.

\frac{BD}{CD} =\frac{AD}{BD} =\frac{BA}{CB}\ \textrm{corresponding sides of similar triangles are in proportion}\\  

On substituting the given values we get

\dfrac{BD}{CD} =\dfrac{AD}{BD}

\dfrac{h}{4} =\dfrac{16}{h}\\\therefore h^{2}=64\\\therefore h=8\ unit

The value of h is 8 unit.

Illusion [34]
You could solve this using a proportion or just by common sense. 

Proportion: 8/12 = x/126

Cross multiply: 12x = 1008

1008/12 = 84

Or the common sense route is just dividing 12 by 8 then multiplying the answer by 126. Either way, you get the same answer. Hope this helps! :)

14. A unfair coin has the probability of heads
Hitman42 [59]

Answer :

the probability of tossing three heads in a row

=\left( \frac{3}{8} \right)^{3}  =\frac{27}{512} =0.052734375

…………………………………………

the probability of tossing two heads followed by one tail

=\left( \frac{3}{8} \right)^{2}  \times \left( \frac{5}{8} \right)  =\frac{45}{512}

……………………………

the probability of two heads and one tail in any order

=3\times \left( \frac{3}{8} \right)^{2}  \times \left( \frac{5}{8} \right)  =\frac{135}{512}
