Answer:

GT=10\ units  and TA=6\ units

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

In the diagram

Triangles GRT and GEA are similar by AA Similarity Postulate

Remember that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional

so

\frac{GR}{GE}=\frac{GT}{GA}

we have

GR=5\ units

GE=5+3=8\ units

GT=16-x\ units

GA=16\ units

substitute

\frac{5}{8}=\frac{16-x}{16}\\ \\5*16=8*(16-x)\\ \\80=128-8x\\ \\8x=128-80\\ \\x=48/8\\ \\x=6\ units

therefore

GT=16-x=16-6=10\ units

TA=x=6\ units

Citrus2011 [14]
We can see from the given numbers in the data that there is an outlier. This means that mean or average is not a good measure of center. Also, there is no repeating number to give us the mode of the given. The answer is therefore, median is the only appropriate measure of center.
