If ΔACB is an isosceles triangle, then ∠A ≅ ∠B and AC ≅ CB
Since ∠C = 120° and ∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180°, then ∠A = 30° and ∠B = 30°
Next, look at ΔADB. ∠A + ∠D + ∠B = 180°, so ∠A + 90° + 30° = 180° ⇒ ∠A = 30°
Now look at ΔADC. Since ∠A = 30° in ΔACB, and ∠A = 60° in ΔADB, then ∠A = 30° in ΔADC <em>per angle addition postulate.</em>
Now that we have shown that ΔADB and ΔADC are 30-60-90 triangles, we can use that formula to calculate the side lengths.
CD = 4 cm (given) so AC = 2(4 cm) = 8 cm
Since AC ≅ BC, then BC = 8 cm. Therefore, BD = 4 + 8 = 12 <em>by segment addition postulate.</em>
Lastly, look at ΔBHD. Since ∠B = 30° and ∠H = 90°, then ∠D = 60°. So, ΔBHD is also a 30-60-90 triangle.
BD = 12 cm, so HD = 
= 6 cm
Answer: 6 cm
Answer:
The length of the line segment UV is 76 units
Step-by-step explanation:
In a triangle, the line segment joining the mid-points of two sides is parallel to the third side and equal to half its length
In Δ ONT
∵ U is the mid-point of ON
∵ V is the mid-point of TN
→ That means UV is joining the mid-points of two sides
∴ UV // OT
∴ UV = 
OT
∵ UV = 7x - 8
∵ OT = 12x + 8
∴ 7x - 8 = (12x + 8)
→ Multiply the bracket by
∵ (12x + 8) = (12x) + (8) = 6x + 4
∴ 7x - 8 = 6x + 4
→ Add 8 to both sides
∴ 7x - 8 + 8 = 6x + 4 + 8
∴ 7x = 6x + 12
→ Subtract 6x from both sides
∴ 7x - 6x = 6x - 6x + 12
∴ x = 12
→ Substitute the value of x in the expression of UV to find it
∵ UV = 7(12) - 8 = 84 - 8
∴ UV = 76
∴ The length of the line segment UV is 76 units
