Answer 2

Answer:

AC ≈ 19.2 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras' identity in Δ BCD to find BC

BC² + BD² = DC² , that is

BC² + 12.6² = 19.3²

BC² + 158.76 = 372.49 ( subtract 158.76 from both sides )

BC² = 213.73 ( take the square root of both sides )

BC = $\sqrt{213.73}$ ≈ 14.62

Using the tangent ratio in Δ ABD to find AB

tan20° = $\frac{opposite}{adjacent}$ = $\frac{AB}{BD}$ = $\frac{AB}{12.6}$ ( multiply both sides by 12.6 )

12.6 × tan20° = AB , then

AB ≈ 4.59

Then

AC = AB + BC = 14.62 + 4.59 ≈ 19.2 cm ( to 1 dec. place )
