???? How do I do this

Answer 1

@jim_thompson5910 Hey if you aren't busy, do you know how to do this??

Answer 2

you have to use pythagorean theorem twice

AB^2 + BC^2 = AC^2
then
AC^2 + CD^2 = AD^2

Answer 3

How do I get the lengths of AC to do this?

Answer 4

use the square root
AC^2 = AB^2 + BC^2
AC = √ ( AB^2 + BC^2)

Answer 5

Ok I did it and the square root of 24 would be 4.898 but without square rooting it its just 24

Answer 6

so AC is 24??

Answer 7

AC = √ 12^2 + 12^2
AC = √ 288

Answer 8

16.970 is what I get when I Square root 288
so ac is 16.970/17 if we round it?

Answer 9

its better if you dont approximate it
AC = √288
now plug it into the second pythagorean equation
AC^2 + CD^2 = AD^2

Answer 10

24.97
So AD is 24.97?

Answer 11

AC^2 + CD^2 = AD^2
√(288)^2 + 8^2 = AD^2
288 + 64 = AD^2
352 = AD^2
AD = √352

Answer 12

18.761 then?

Answer 13

which is 18.76 to the nearest hundredth

Answer 14

Thank you !! That's all or?
