All the triangles are similar, so the ratio of (long leg)/(short leg) is the same. The long leg of ΔADB is
.. AD = AC -DC = 20 -4
.. AD = 16
Then
.. (long leg)/(short leg) = AD/DB = BD/DC
.. 16/h = h/4
.. h^2 = 64
.. h = 8
Selection D is appropriate.
_____
You may see this again. The altitude (h) from the right angle in a right triangle is the geometric mean of segments AD and DC. That is,
.. h = √((AD)*(DC))
Answer:
d= 4
or 5.66
Step-by-step explanation:
(-2,7) and (2,3)
d = 
d= 
d = 
d= 4 or 5.66
Answer: 11.775
If you plug in the radius (0.5 because the radius is half of the diameter) and the height to the formula for volume of a cylinder you will get pi•0.5 squared•15 which when solved is 11.775.
First, add the ratio together to get the denominator of the fraction you will use to determine the share. 3+5= 8. Now, you have two fractions: 3/8 and 5/8. Next, just find 3/8 and 5/8 of 56 to get your answers:
(56÷8)×3= <span>£21
</span>and
(56÷8)×5= <span>£35</span>
