Three and more points are collinear
Remark
You are dealing with a right angle triangle. You can use one of Sin(x) Cos(x) or Tan(x). Since the Hypotenuse is involved and since you are given the adjacent side, Cos(71) is what you will need.
Solution
H = BC
Cos(x) = adjactent / hypotenuse
Cos(71) = 6.3 / H Multiply both sides by H
H * Cos(71) = 6.3 Divide by Cos(71)
H = 6.3 / cos(71) Cos(71) = 0.32557
H = 6.3 / 0.32557 Divide
H = BC = 19.351 Answer
1 ft = 12 inches
therefore, 15 inches is more then 1 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
for the relationship of lengths of internal chords the product of both segments of a chord is equal for all intersecting chords.
in our case
(x+8)×8 = 7×16 = 112
8x + 64 = 112
8x = 48
x = 6
so, D-F = x + 8 = 6 + 8 = 14
so, C is correct
