rishavraj (rishavraj):

@savannaadams16 there???? :?

OpenStudy (savannaadams16):

Yeah.

OpenStudy (tacotime):

There may be some other way to do this but I would plug in each answer for DC to find AC then use the Pythagorean theorem to check AB using AC and CB as the other two sides

OpenStudy (savannaadams16):

I don't have side AB..

OpenStudy (tacotime):

AD + DC = AC. AD is given DC is one of the answer choices.
