In the diagram below, BC is an altitude of AABD. To the nearest whole unit, what is the length of CD? ​

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the Pythagorean theorem, find BA: [tex]\sqrt{37^{2}+53^{2} } = \sqrt{4178}[/tex]

Making BC = x, find the lenth of BD: [tex]\sqrt{x^{2} +37^{2} }[/tex]

Since DBA is a right triangle, this follows: [tex]DA^{2}=BD^{2}+BA^{2}[/tex]

Substitute: [tex](x+53)^{2} =\sqrt{4178} ^{2} +\sqrt{x^2+37^2} ^{2}[/tex]

Expand: [tex]x^{2} +106x+2809=x^{2} +5547[/tex]

Solve: 106x = 2736

Finally: x ≈ 25.8 ≈ 26

Therefore: C

My fellow Americans, tonight, I’d like to talk with you about immigration.
For more than 200 years, our tradition of welcoming immigrants from around the world has given us a tremendous advantage over other nations. It’s kept us youthful, dynamic, and entrepreneurial.
