Please help me i’ll give brainliest or whatever its called

Answer 1

Answer:

2.6

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we need to use the Pythagorean theorem to solve this.

The way to solve is by solving for AD by using triangle CAD and then using that result to solve for BD.

3.4² + b² = 6.5²

11.56 + b² = 42.25

42.25 - 11.56 = b²

b = √30.69

b = 5.53985559 or about 5.5

4.9² + b² = 5.5²

24.01 + b² = 30.69

30.69 - 24.01 = 6.68

b = √6.68

b = 2.58456959666 or about 2.6

EDIT: the other user is incorrect, here's why

3.4 + 4.5 = 7.9

6.5² + 4.9² = 7.9²

66.26 doesn't equal 62.41
