Rationalisation

Explanation:

Rationalisation is the attempt by an individual to justify an action, behaviour, or attitude with logical reasoning. Mostly the reasons given are not appropriate enough.

In the given instance Jake is accused of stealing food products from the store, he justifies his act by claiming that his monthly pay is not sufficient to support his family of five members.

This is not enough reason to still but he still tries to rationalise his action based on his low salary.

bd = 9 cm

step-by-step explanation:

in a 30°-60°-90° triangle, the ratio of side lengths is 1 : √3 : 2. that is, the longest side (hypotenuse) is twice the length of the shortest side.

all of the triangles in your geometry are 30°-60°-90° triangles. ac is the hypotenuse of δacd, and the short side of δabc.

the short side ad of δacd will be half the length of ac, so 3 cm. the hypotenuse ab of δabc will be twice the length of ac, so 12 cm. segment bd is the difference of the lengths ab and ad, so is

bd = ab -ad

bd = 12 cm - 3 cm = 9 cm

comment on side length ratios

you can figure the ratios of side lengths in a 30°-60°-90° triangle by considering the trig ratios of the angles. or you can figure the length of the altitude of an equilateral triangle of side length 2 using the pythagorean theorem.
