Please answer soon. Include Statement and Reason if possible. Given: ΔABC, AC = BC, AB = 3
CD ⊥ AB, CD = √3
Find: AC

Explanation:

Triangle CDA is congruent to triangle CDB. We can use the HL (hypotenuse leg) congruence theorem to prove this. This only works because we have two right triangles.

Since CDA and CDB are congruent, this means their corresponding pieces are the same length. Specifically AD = DB, so

AD+DB = AB

AD+AD = 3

2*AD = 3

AD = 3/2 = 1.5

For triangle CDA, we have AD = 3/2 = 1.5 and CD = sqrt(3). We can use the pythagorean theorem to find the missing side AC

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

(AD)^2 + (CD)^2 = (AC)^2

(3/2)^2 + (sqrt(3))^2 = (AC)^2

9/4 + 3 = (AC)^2

(AC)^2 = 9/4 + 3

(AC)^2 = 9/4 + 12/4

(AC)^2 = 21/4

AC = sqrt(21/4)

AC = sqrt(21)/sqrt(4)

AC = sqrt(21)/2

This is the same as writing (1/2)*sqrt(21) or 0.5*sqrt(21)

1) c 2143.6 cm

2) c 113.0 m

3) a 33.5 ft

4)   d 2 cm

5) c 20 mm

6) 180 in

7) d 120 ft

1/3

step-by-step explanation:

to find this, you can divide 12 by 4 which is 3 or you can multiply 4 until you reach 12 (4x3=12). both should give you 3, meaning theres three times less bananas than there are oranges.
