Using Triangle Similarity Theorems (6)

Mathematics
1 answer:
Fantom [35]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

DC = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on triangle similarity theorem, we would have the following equation:

\frac{AD}{AC} = \frac{AE}{AB}

Plug in the values

\frac{9}{9 + DC} = \frac{12}{12 + 4}

\frac{9}{9 + DC} = \frac{12}{16}

\frac{9}{9 + DC} = \frac{3}{4}

Cross multiply

3(9 + DC) = 9×4

27 + 3DC = 36

Subtract 27 from each side

3DC = 36 - 27

3DC = 9

Divide both sides by 3

DC = 9/3

DC = 3

If angle A measures 90 degrees and angles B and C measure 45 degrees and side AC measures 12 ft, find the length of side BC. Ple
kondor19780726 [428]
Since the angle are both 45 degrees, then you know that both legs are equal=12.  
so to find the hypotenuse, you use the pythagorean theorem:

12^2+12^2= c^2
144+144=c^2
288=c^2
square root(144) x square root (2)=c
12 square root 2 is the answer, so D.
