Answer:

20 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of the perpendicular dropped from vertex C to segment AB be x

By geometric mean property:

x =  \sqrt{16 \times 9}  \\  \\ x =  \sqrt{144}  \\  \\ x = 12 \: m \\  \\ By \: Pythagoras \: Theorem: \\  \\ Distance \: across \: the \: pond \\  \\  =  \sqrt{ {16}^{2} +  {12}^{2}  }  \\  \\  =  \sqrt{256 + 144}  \\  \\  =  \sqrt{400}  \\  \\  = 20 \: m

Solve square root of x+3 = 2
devlian [24]
√x+3 = 2

First we should simplify the equation by squaring both sides:

x + 3 = 4

Isolate x by taking 3 off both sides:

x = 1

We should ALWAYS check that our answer is correct after working out the value of x. We can do this by substituting x into the original equation:

√x + 3 = 2

Turns into:

√1 + 3 = 2

Which turns into:

√4 = 2

Which is true, therefore we can confirm:

x = 1
