Here's the link to the answer! Couldn't attach it here!
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))
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
You need to change the denominator into a the least common denominator, 4 and 3 both have 12 in common. 12 is your new denominator but what you to the bottom you must do to the top. So when you multiply 3/4 by 3/3 you will get 9/12.
Then you want to make 4 1/3 into a improper fraction, which would be 13/3 you want to multiply this by 4 and you will get 52/12. You will then add 52/12 to 9/12 and get 61/12 or 5 1/12.
