4.13. In the figure given below ZA = 90°, AD isperpendicular to BC. Find x.​

Answer»

Step-by-step EXPLANATION:

  • by theorem of perpendicular drawn from right ANGLE then both the triangles similar to each other
  • so, AC/BC=DC/AC
  • 12√3/6+x=x/12√3
  • by SOLVING we GET quadratic equation
  • {x }^{2}  + 6x - 432 = 0 \\ {x}^{2}  + 24x - 18x - 432 = 0 \\ x(x + 24) - 18(x + 24) = 0 \\ (x + 24)(x - 18) = 0 \\  \\ x = 18  \: or \: x =  - 24
  • length cannot be negative so ANSWER is 18.
