Answer:
The length of CD is 8 units
Step-by-step explanation:
<u><em>The complete question in the attached figure</em></u>
we know that
According to the Right Triangle Altitude Theorem,

substitute the given values


solve the quadratic equation by graphing
The solution is x=8 or x=-6
see the attached figure N 2
Discard the negative length.
therefore
The length of CD is 8 units
Answer:
Part 1) 
Part 2) 
Part 3) 
Part 4) 
Step-by-step explanation:
step 1
Find the measure of angle C
we know that
The triangle ABC is a right triangle
so
Angle C is a right angle
therefore

step 2
Fin the measure of angle A
we know that
In the right triangle ABC
∠B+∠A=90° -----> by complementary angles
we have

substitute


step 3
Find the length side b
we know that
In the right triangle ABC


substitute the given values

step 4
Find the length side a
we know that
In the right triangle ABC


substitute the given values

Answer: 32
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x=4.5,y=5,z=9
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we use the pythagorean theorem in the lower right triangle (with sides 4,x,6) and find x^2+4^2=6^2 and therefore x^2=6^2-4^2=20 so x=√20 which is approximately 4.5.
Also, we can see from the picture that z=y+4, and therefore the only option left is x=4.5,y=5,z=9.
Answer:
C, D, B, A
Step-by-step explanation:
The greater the angle the tangent line makes with the positive x-axis, the greater the slope. Angles increase in the counterclockwise direction, so the question here is equivalent to asking for the tangent lines to be put in clockwise (decreasing slope) order.
That order is C, D, B, A.
