The length of BC is
.
Solution:
Given ABC is a right triangle.
AC is the hypotenuse and BD is the altitude.
AB and BC are legs of the triangle ABC.
AC = 16 and DC = 5
<u>Leg rule of geometric mean theorem:</u>



Do cross multiplication.



Taking square root on both sides.


square and square roots get canceled, we get

- Sum of Angles in a Quadrilateral: 360
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Set up</u>
75 + 120 + 90 + ∠4 = 360
<u>Step 2: Solve</u>
- Add: 285 + ∠4 = 360
- [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 285 on both sides: ∠4 = 75

Answer:
Sydney is 44 years old
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Make a system of equations
</u>
d = s - 15
<em>d + s = 73
</em>
<u>Step 2: Plug in s - 15 for d in the second equation and solve
</u>
s - 15 + s = 73
2s - 15 = 73 + 15
2s / 2= 88 / 2
<em>s = 44
</em>
Answer: Sydney is 44 years old
