All the triangles are similar, so the ratio of (long leg)/(short leg) is the same. The long leg of ΔADB is
.. AD = AC -DC = 20 -4
.. AD = 16
Then
.. (long leg)/(short leg) = AD/DB = BD/DC
.. 16/h = h/4
.. h^2 = 64
.. h = 8
Selection D is appropriate.
_____
You may see this again. The altitude (h) from the right angle in a right triangle is the geometric mean of segments AD and DC. That is,
.. h = √((AD)*(DC))
Parallel lines are in the same plane, never intersect, and have the same slope.
The answer is B since a negative number being subtracted cancels out and becomes a number, for example: since its -(-3) it becomes positive.
Answer:
2<d<8
Step-by-step explanation:
I have the same packet
The complementary event is that a customer does not enter the store within one minute of closing, and the probability is 75%.
The complement is found by subtracting from 100%; 100-25 = 75%.
