You found CD from the Pythagorean theorem to be ...
... CD = √(5² -2²) = √21
Since triangle ADC ~ triangle ACB, the ratios of corresponding sides are the same:
... AC/AD = AB/AC
... AB = AC²/AD
... AB = 5²/2 = 12.5 . . . . . . . the base of the overall triangle
_____
Then the area (A) is ...
... A = (1/2)bh
... A = (1/2)(12.5)(√21) ≈ 28.64 square units
_____
As you see here, the altitude of a right triangle divides it into three similar triangles. From smallest to largest, they are ...
... ADC ~ CDB ~ ACB
You can figure this using AAA similarity, since the smallest and largest triangles listed above share an acute angle vertex (∠A). That, together with the right angle, means all angles are congruent. After that, then you know ∠ACD ≅ ∠CBD, so you can show the middle sized triangle is similar to the other two.

18f + 30fx by its gcf
Answer:
You can use the Side-Angle-Side Postulate.
Step-by-step explanation:
The Side-Angle-Side (or SAS) Postulate basically states that if two sides of two triangles and the included angle are congruent, the two triangles are congruent.
Literally y is across from 112, so y=112
Answer: 50653
37³ = (40 - 3)³ = 40³ - 3.40².3 + 3.40.3² - 3³
= 64000 - 14400 + 1080 - 27
= 50653
Step-by-step explanation:
