Since DC = 12, then EF also = 12.
Both AD and BC are indicated to be the same .
So AE = (24 - 12) / 2 = 12/2 = 6
Now you have a right triangle with height DE = 8 and base AE = 6
Using the Pythagorean Theorem we can now find AD:
AD = √(8^2 + 6^2)
AD = √(64 + 36)
AD =√100
AD = 10

Answer:
t.uy
Step-by-step explanation:
16.5 degrees below the starting temp, whatever that is. If its 0, then -16.5 degrees.
The first equation would be (.5)5-11=-8.5, because the metal has been cooling for 5 hours.
The device that 'aids' in the cooling would be -5-3=-8, because it is a separate variable that cools the metal, so the amount the device cools is independent of the natural cooling amount, and the equation is independent of the natural cooling equation.
You then add -8.5 and -8, because the device has lowered 8.5 degrees and 8 degrees. This equals -16.5 degrees, or a decrease of 16.5 degrees.
