Hey Guys,
For number 31)
The answer is 4 sqroot 3.
I just want to know if I got the correct answer with the correct steps. I spent like 15 minutes with this question so I just want to be sure. I thought I knew how to get it. Turns out I don't. But anyways this is what I have tried.
So we have Right Triangle ABC.
Angle c = 90
Angle BAC = 30 because it has been bisected by Ray AD
AB = 12
Since we have 90 and 30 degrees. Angle B has to be 60 degrees.
AB = 12 so BD has to be the smallest number since it is opposite the 30 degree angle (applying 30-60-90 degree triangle)
So AB has to be the longest side since 4sqroot3 times sqroot 3 = 12.
The thing is how do I know AB is the longest side? It looks to me like it's the hypotenuse. Also, Angle DBC is not a right angle.
Brain is exploding. lol
