What is the length is centimeters of line segment AD?

its 22

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation:

Focus solely on triangle ABD.

Let x be the length of AD. This is the unknown horizontal leg of the triangle. The vertical leg is known, so we'll say b = 16.

The hypotenuse is 20, so c = 20.

Use the pythagorean theorem to find x

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

x^2 + 16^2 = 20^2

x^2 + 256 = 400

x^2 = 400 - 256

x^2 = 144

x = sqrt(144)

x = 12

Segment AD is 12 cm long.

the arc length is found by finding the circumference of the full circle (2xpixradius) and then dividing by 4 to find just one quarter of the circle (90 degrees).

the polynomial is a perfect square trinomial of the form a^2-2ab+b^2:

option a. true

step-by-step explanation:

9x^2-12x+4

comparing with the form a^2-2ab+b^2

1.) a^2=9x^2

solving for a: square root both sides of the equation:

sqrt(a^2)=sqrt(9x^2)

a=sqrt(9) sqrt(x^2)

a=3x

2.) b^2=4

solving for b: square root both sides of the equation:

sqrt(b^2)=sqrt(4)

b=2

to be a perfet square trinomial 2ab must be equal to 12x. let's check:

2ab = 2 (3x) (2)

2ab = 12x

correct
