Does anyone know how to do this? Im so confused.

Work Shown:

AB+BC+CD = AD segment addition postulate

BC+BC+CD = AD ... replace AB with BC (since AB = BC)

BC+BC+BC = AD ... replace CD with BC (since BC = BC)

3*BC = AD combine like terms

3*BC = 12 replace AD with 12

BC = 12/3 divide both sides by 3

BC = 4

For right triangle PBC, the legs are BP = 3 and BC = 4. We can use the Pythagorean Theorem to find that the hypotenuse is PC = 5

The steps are shown below

(BP)^2+(BC)^2 = (PC)^2

3^2+4^2 = (PC)^2

9+16 = (PC)^2

25 = (PC)^2

(PC)^2 = 25

PC = sqrt(25)

PC = 5

The other parts of the diagram seem to be thrown in as a distraction.

i think it will be zero as slope has a formula of difference between initial and final distance divided by itz time interval
