Answer:
Median might be the answer or maybe the height?
Answer: x = 40.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Simply divide 27/(2/3) to get 40.5

Fret seems like the best option.
Answer:
(C) 2√15
Step-by-step explanation:
Recognize that all the triangles are right triangles, so are similar to each other. In these similar triangles, the ratio of the short side to the long side is the same for all.
... CB/CA = CT/CB
... CB² = CA·CT = 10·6 = 60 . . . . . . . . . . multiply by CA·CB; substitute values
... CB = √60 = 2√15 . . . . . . . take the square root; simplify

The altitude to the hypotenuse of a right triangle (CB in this case) divides the hypotenuse into lengths such that the altitude is their geometric mean. That is ...
... CB = √(AC·CT) . . . . as above
This is true for any right triangle — another fact of geometry to put in your list of geometry facts.
It's really important that you aim to understand how to do these problems yourself, rather than "pay" others to do them for you. Why not ask for "directions" or "guidance," instead of for "answers?"
This is a tricky question because it's not required that you have the full 12 beads on the string in every case. You could, for example, have 6 beads, 2 of which would be red, making the ratio of red beads 2 to 6, or 1 to 3.
What about 3 red beads in 9?
What about 1 red bead in 3?
Do these "answers" satisfy the requirement that the ratio of red beads to all beads is 1:3?
