Given right triangle A, B, C*ABC* with altitude start overline, B, D, end overline*BD* drawn to hypotenuse start overline, A, C, end overline*AC*. If A, D, equals, 7*AD*=7 and B, D, equals, 14, comma*BD*=14, what is the length of start overline, D, C, end overline, question mark*DC*?

Given right triangle ABC with altitude BD drawn to hypotenuse AC. If AD = 7 and BD = 14, what is the length of DC?

Solve for DC in right triangle ABC, where altitude BD is drawn to hypotenuse AC. Given AD = 7 and BD = 14, use the geometric mean theorem and proportionality in similar triangles for a step-by-step solution. Ideal for students in Grades 8-10.
