Use the geometric mean (altitude) theorem. What is the value of m? 4 2 StartRoot 7 EndRoot 4 StartRoot 10 EndRoot 160

Option C: 4√10

Step-by-step explanation:

From the geometric mean theorem, when we have this type of rectangle with a height of say "x" and left and right distances to this height as "a" and "b" respectively, then the theorem says that;

x/a = b/x

Applying it to this question;

Altitude is "m"

Left side measurement is 8

Right side measurement is 20

Thus;

m/8 = 20/m

Cross multiply to get;

m² = 160

m = √160

m = √(16 × 10)

m = 4√10

step-by-step explanation:

the options are kind of confusing. i can tell you what i see going on here when i look at the graph.

the class and exam medians are closely related, and it looks like the low outlier on the exam did pull the median lower. [tex][/tex]
