If AD = y + 6 and DC = 2y, what is the length of DC?
4 months ago
Q:
If AD = y + 6 and DC = 2y, what is the length of DC?
Accepted Solution
A:
We are given
AD = y + 6 and DC = 2y
From the figure, we have the equation
AD = DC
Substituting the given
y + 6 = 2y
Solving for y
y = 6
Subsituting the value of y in DC
DC = 2(6) = 12
