Step-by-step explanation:
I just looked it up bro lol
Step-by-step explanation:
can't really use the Pythagorean because you don't know this is a right triangle.
use the fact that they are similar
so
3/6 = x/12 where x is FE
cross multiply
6x = 36 therefore FE = 6
then 6/12 = y/9 where y is FD
cross multiply
12y = 54 = 54/12 therefore FD = 4.5
Absolute value means the distance from 0.
|-0.45| =0.45
|-0.0045|=0.0045
0.45>0.0045
So
|-0.45|>|-0.0045|
