Let ABC be a right triangle such that B is a right angle. A circle with diameter of BC meets side AC at D. If the area of ABC is 150 and AC = 40 then what is BD?
what is BD?
Hello Guest!
BD is perpendicular to AC, so it is the height of triangle ABC. So is
\(BD=\frac{2\cdot 150}{40}=\color{blue}7.5\)
