Now, you try. Complete the Think & Click activity by looking at the problem below, thinking about it, and then clicking on the question to reveal the solution.
Use rectangle ABCD to answer the following questions.
DC is 6 feet and BO is 5 feet. Find the length of AD.
BD = 2(BO) = 2(5) = 10
BC2 + DC2 = BD2
BC2+ 62 = 102
BC2 + 36 = 100
BC2 = 64
BC = 8
AD = 8
Angle ADC = (6x – 90)°. Find the value of x.
6x – 90 = 90
6x = 180
x = 30
