Math Problem Statement
in a quadrilateral abcd,ab=bc=bd.find ac? when angle abc=90 degree
Solution
We are given a quadrilateral , where the following conditions hold:
We are asked to find the length of .
Step-by-step solution:
-
Since and , triangle is an isosceles right triangle. In such a triangle, the hypotenuse is times the length of each leg.
-
In triangle , we can use the Pythagorean theorem to find (the hypotenuse): Since , we have: Therefore, .
Since , the answer is:
