What is the length of side ad? . . 6 cm. 8.5 cm. 10.4 cm. 12 cm

The length of side AD is 6 cm.

Further explanation

We solve this problem using the principle of trigonometric ratio.

Look at the figure.  

Given that the triangle ABC is right-angled at B

Length of AB = 12 cm∠ C = 30°The segment of BD is perpendicular to AC side.

We start from this statement:

“sum of measures of angles in a triangle is 180°.”

In the triangle ABC:

∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180°

∠A + 90° + 30° = 180°

∠A + 120° = 180°

∠A = 180° - 120°

∠A = 60°

See the picture again. The triangle ABD is a right angle at D.  

About angle D:

AB is the hypotenuseAD is the adjacent side

Based on trigonometric ratios, the relationship between AD, AB, and angle A is as follows:

We get the length of AD is 6 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. ENCUENTRA UN DENOMINADOR COMUN

  Los denominadores que nos dan son: 4, 2, 5, y 3

  Encuentra un numero que es comun cuando multiplicas, seria 60.

2. MULTIPLICA EL NOMINADOR POR LO QUE MULTIPLICASTE EL DOMINADOR

   Carne=

   Arroz=

   Fruta=

   Papa=

3. SUMA LAS FRACIONES

   Ahora que tienen el mismo denominador, puedes sumar las fraciones
