A zip line starts on a platform that is
40 meters above the ground. The anchor for the zip line is 198
horizontal meters from the base of the platform.

Aportion of a line bounded by two points is defined as

In triangle △abc, ∠abc=90°, bh is an altitude. find the missing lengths. ah=4 and hc=1, find bh.

If m∠abc = 70°, what is m∠abd? justify your reasoning.  using the addition property of equality, 40 + 70 = 110, so m∠abd = 110°.  using the subtraction property of equality, 70 − 30 = 40, so m∠abd = 30°.  using the angle addition postulate, 40 + m∠abd = 70. so, m∠abd = 30° using the subtraction property of equality.  using the angle addition postulate, 40 + 70 = m∠abd. so, m∠abd = 110° using the addition property of equality.
