We have to determine the conversion factor used to convert inches to yards. Yard and inch are US and British customary length units. We know that 1 yard = 3 feet = 36 inches. So we just have to divide 1 by 36. 1 : 36 = 0.027777.... ( more accurate with more decimal digits ). For example: 54 yards = 54 * 0.0277777 = 1.4999958 ( approx. 1.5 ). Answer: The conversion factor is: 0.0277777... <span> </span>
The length of
is given by the relationship between the similar triangles
ΔABD and ΔBDC.
= <u>80</u>
Reasons:
The given parameters are;
The altitude of triangle ΔABD = 
The hypotenuse of formed right triangle = 
The length of AD = 8
Length of BD = 24
Whereby ΔABD is a right triangle
We have;
ΔABD is similar to ΔBDC
Therefore, by similar triangle proportional sides relationship, we have;

Which gives;
= 
Therefore;



Which gives;
